    And thus, the top 3 ranking matches my own. A very good game as usual, @GoldenGun. Thank you so much.

    Well at least I can say I got the top two spot on!!
    No real surprise as Grant has always been held in high esteem, and Oddjob is such an iconic henchman!
    Again, kudos to you @GoldenGun for organising par excellence 👏

    Yup, thanks a lot, GG, for organizing this. With all the work in calculating the final list, you're probably lucky there weren't even more people participating :-).

    A logical conclusion which also mirrors my own personal rankings.
    The garotte watch and steel rimmed bowler hat are already quite enough to make both baddies legendary, but it is the little nuances that each actor brought to the character that elevates them above all those that followed.
    The Bond series have seen a lot of memorable baddies, but these two are just in a league of their own, never again to be equalled, let alone surpassed.
    Oddjob may be the more iconic, quintessential henchman, but it is Shaw’s mesmerizing performance and the fantastic final confrontation aboard the Orient Express that puts the blond homicidal maniac at the top of the heap.

    Thanks @GoldenGun for yet another fun game, looking forward to the next one.

    I had "Red" Grant at number 4, but I have zero complaints about him taking the top stop. Robert Shaw's character (like all of those listed in the top 4 IMO) are known even to those that aren't hard core 007 fans.

    And, as always, a big thankyou to @GoldenGun for all of the work involved in putting this together.
