I've just been watching TLD and I noticed someone called Nadim Sawalha come up on the credits. I was just wondering if this is the same Nadim Sawalha who played Fekkesh in TSWLM. It could have been his son or something, as Pedro Armendariz and Pedro Armendariz Jr have been in two Bond films(FRWL and LTK) and they were father and son.

I'd say he was the overdressed police chief who waves his arms around after Bond shoots Pushkin. Comedy Johnny Foreigner. So excitable. I believe that he was destined to be covered in blue paint, but was spared such sub-Moore ignominy. The time you've taken to read this is about as long as he appears in the film.

according to The Bond Film Informant he is credited as Chief of Security, Tangiers.

I think that's the character that inspected the ambulance before boarding the plane for Afghanistan.
