Talk about nostalgia! I saw this when it was originally broadcast but had forgotten it completely. Thanks for bringing it back!

It appears that Martin Gabel says, "Hello Sean, how are you?" after he takes off his mask but I admit to not being an expert lip reader. Gabel had been one of Connery's co-stars in Marnie. Acccording to responses on the YouTube video, Dorothy Kilgallen's last question (about someone losing an adress book from a helicopter) refers to Anthony Perkins. This was one of Kilgallen's final appearances, she passed away in November 1965.

Sorry about that Mr Solo, I guess I should have scrolled down a bit more to see your's. I would think this kind of post should get more reaction but they never do.
I think this is a pretty big deal but thats because I am older maybe. The young bucks out there dont care much for it.

No worries at all. Years ago, I saw a little tiny part of the clip. On YouTube, there are dozens of What's My Line? mystery guest appearances (including Ursula Andress promoting the 1967 Casino Royale, and Woody Allen while he was doing that film) but I could never spot the Connery appearance until it surfaced a few months ago.

In general I like those, because they're like a time capsule: Charlton Heston around the time The Ten Commandments was coming out, Stephen Boyd around the time of Ben Hur, etc., etc., tven genuine historical figures (Eleanor Roosevelt. Plus it was made in a different era, the way the panel dressed formally, etc.

Came across this on Youtube, and found it pretty funny as Connery attempted to disguise his easily recognizable voice:
