    Well, I'm sort of insistent...which you will see regarding a few other threads next. Any takers?

    Difficult, this one. I have no clue and can only imagine that prince and princess allude not to people but to something else?

    How about the statues on Spectre island in the pre-title sequence of FRWL?

    No, it's not from FRWL. And forget my pun-attempt title and think only of the description. Your initial thought is also correct.

    Maybe the first time we see Solitaire in LALD. Isn't she some kind of princess according to the cards?

    Well, maybe...but where is the prince? As I confirmed to @zebrafish, his idea that this may not apply to people but to something else was correct.

    Well, @j_w_pepper , I rewatched all pre-title sequences tonight and I don't find it. There are no cars called princess or prince in Bond, no planes, helicopters or translations of names within the first 3 minutes of a movie. I quit, unless you give us a little hint.

    I also thought about the cars in the PTS of OHMSS?

    The description does not say "within the first three minutes", but "within less than two or three minutes of a movie". Those minutes can be anywhere in that film. And cars, planes and helicopters are not the typical means of transportation that bear a name.

    And it's not from LALD or OHMSS either.

    In DAF, we see 'The Princess Margaret' hovercraft which Bond travels on, then in the next shot, the 'Prins Willem-Alexander' boat cruising past a dead Mrs Whistler.

    It's actually over to @QBranch as he came up with the correct scene. I was merely making a silly joke. Apologies. :)

    Are you sure you don't want to pick the next scene?

    Ah, I see. Forgot about the upside down time. Sleep well. I'll think a new one up when I get home from work. :)

    Here's the new one:

    A brief moment where the MI6 crew just seem to be treading water waiting for the arrival of the main driver of the plot - James Bond.

    QoS, when Bond transmits the fotos of the Spectre members in the opera audience?

    TND, when Bond is still brushing up on a little Danish? "Jeg har altid nydt at studere en ny tunge, professor." (I copied that from somewhere, I don't speak Danish.) Or would that be the same scene that @QBranch already suggested?

    No, not that scene, sorry. It's nothing from TND. It is a very short little scene.
