    You laid the foundations, so by right the next round is yours.

    I’m thinking it would have to do with some ski action?
    Could it be TWINE is the ooo, as the other two Bond is fired upon from the ground, but in TWINE he’s fired on from the air?

    Nothing to do with ski or any other type of action, my friend.

    That can apply to any Bond film. But you have the right idea, just need to focus on a detail that is specific only to these three films.

    As I said in my previous post, you were on the right track in that the main Bond girls are part of the answer… but it’s up to you to find who or what makes them unique within the series.

    Their dads are all in them, but only one of them survived?

    Bingo!
    I should have included SP as well, come to think of it.
    NTTD also comes to mind but since Mathilde is not 'that kind' of Bond girl, I wouldn't have listed it. This film is actually unique in that it is the only one in the series that features three generations of the same family.
    Over to you @mtm

    Yay! Thank you, that’s a great idea for a round. I didn’t think of Madeline, that’s a good point. Great bit of trivia about the generations too: I think a bit bit of that is that it’s almost slightly weirdly unusual for a Bond film to feature a child- there’s very few incidences of that.
    Will think of a new round ASAP!

    Sorry for the delay; Christmas got in the way!

    I'm hoping this one hasn't been played before:

    FRWL
    TSWLM
    TND

    And it's a character link.

    Bond is feature dallying with a lady at the start of each picture, Spy is OOO has the female is an enemy agent.

    All three Bond girls are ‘red’ agents.
    Wai Lin is Chinese so TND OOO ?

    That's a good one, but not what I'm thinking of. Along the right lines though.

    Okay how is this, all feature leading ladies tied to communist countries. But Tatiana Romanova only thinks she is working for Mother Russia but in reality is working for SPECTRE

    FRWL Tatiana a Russian file clerk who thinks she's working for Russia
    TSWLM Anya a Russian agent who is partnered with Bond formally
    TND Wai Lin a Chinese agent who is not partnered with Bond and works informally

    Anya is the OOO as she wishes to kill Bond, while the other ladies don't wish Bond dead?

    Giving this a slight bump @mtm as I made a guess a short time ago. Others may wish to chime in with a guess!

    Sorry, yes: you're very close! I think it's something these three have in common and no others (although I'm sure I'll end up being wrong about that!).

    Total stab in the dark, all three ladies end up with Bond in the water, but only FRWL ends with them both being dry?

    Another gentle bump @mtm seems like I am the only one with guesses right now. LOL!

    I would also follow this thread but I don't have any good ideas so far.

    TSWLM: Détente mentioned and enacted.

    I think if I gave any other clues it would give it away: you were very close with your guess on 2nd Jan! When I say these three and no others, I'm talking about leading Bond girls.
  • thedovethedove hiding in the Greek underworld

    FRWL Tatiana a Russian file clerk who thinks she's working for Russia
    TSWLM Anya a Russian agent who is partnered with Bond formally
    TND Wai Lin a Chinese agent who is not partnered with Bond and works informally

    This was the closest guess so far.

    Let me try this one:

    FRWL Tatiana, betrays her country by killing Klebb and saving Bond's life
    TSWLM Bond saves Anya even though she's a Russian agent
    TND Bond saves Wai Lin a Chinese agent

    FRWL is OOO as a "communist" saves Bond.

    What I’m looking for is a bit simpler than that; it’s something about these three leading Bond girls and no others (I think!).
