I watched the Bond movies with Pierce Brosnan, and in each movie, we see Michael G. Wilson.
In Goldeneye: Around the table of the Ministery of Defence in Russia. He has got big glasses, if you ask me!
In Tommorrow Never Dies: As one of Elliot Carvers reporters on the big view screen in Hamburg. He also says something.
In The World Is Not Enough: I think I saw Michael G. Wilson at the casino in Baku. But I can't remember it very well. Does anyone now the particular scene?
And Wilson also appeared in other Bond movies, but I don't now exactly which ones. Does anyone know?

Well, I've seen them all right now.
His first cameo appearance was in 'Moonraker'.When 007 arrives at the Venini Glass museum, Bond first watches to the outside of the museum. At the right you can see a men, in yellow shirt, together with his son, in pink shirt. The older men is Michael Wilson (if you have widescreen dvd). At the end, you can spot Wilson at the controlcenter of NASA. They are exchanging some information. Wilson is sitting with white shirt.
Then we have got 'For Your Eyes Only'. There is a traditional Greek wedding, where Bond meets Q in a church. The priest is doing the marriage, and yes, that priest is Michael G. Wilson.
'Octopussy'. It was hard for this one. I saw Wilson helping Bond out of the water during the chase of the elephants. Wilson is also sitting at the upper left at the Russian Council Meeting with Gogol, Breznjev and Orlov (only if you got widescreen).
As what 'A View To A Kill' concerns, I couldn't find a Wilson cameo. I thought I only heard his voice when Sutton and Bond exit the elevator of the City Hall. But perhaps that wrong.
And then, the Timothy Dalton era. If you watch 'The Living Daylights', you can see Wilson and Saunders sitting between a woman, when Saunders makes contact with Bond at the opera (taking his hands up with a white program booklet)
'Licence to Kill' only featured his sound at the pre sequence.
'GoldenEye' and Wilson's cameo is already famous by everyone. Michael Wilson is sitting at the large table of the Russian Security Council.
'Tommorrow Never Dies' (at Cravers mediareports) knows everyone, even like 'The World Is Not Enough' (at the casino).
Now is my question. Does Michael G. Wilson this only for fun, or is there an intention in it? I only see it as very funny!

Jim,
I know this has got nothing to do with the topic of this thread, but I think you might be interested in this.
I have already posted this elsewhere, but I get the feeling you haven't seen it. If you have, then sorry.

He was due to appear in the all chums together, everyone's friends now and Bond's forgiven party at Sancez' house at the end of LTK, but, as he's previously said, his bit was cut out.
Is this why he speaks through gritted teeth? Sounds painful.
I'm sure I've seen him in the background at Ascot in AVTAK, although I may be mistaken.
