What about Dryden as the corrupt Section chief in the PTS. Along with him you would have his contact Fisher who becomes 007's first kill of two to earn his 00 status.

Oh sorry JCRendle. I wasn't sure what you were after. I think that this takes care of it though as far as I can think of unless you think Mathis was a double agent (that is a discussion long going on in another thread).

Yip - cause he's innocent, this is Mathis we're talking about - check out my views in said thread.

A Bond film is often as good as its villains and there certainly were alot of them in Casino Royale.

Can't wait to see how this "organization" is handled in Bond 22.

I would say that Dimitrios should be connected to Le Chiffre rather than "the organisation" - he is basically a right-hand man to Le Chiffre, helping with the organisation of the airport bombing.

Anyone else notice that Le Chiffre had another henchman (not Kratt or Leo) who was in several scenes? Does anyone know if he was credited? Actually I noticed him much more than Leo, who I only really saw being arrested with Obanno's body in his car.

I seem to recall a picture of Mendel holding a gun. I took him to be a bad guy. Even after watching the film i wondered whether Mendel was in fact working with Le Chiffre or even that he was in discreet compliance with the Organisation. Maybe they bribed him to turn a blind eye when Vesper was transferring the money out. He just seemed fishy to me despite his comical exterior.

Anyone think this might be a possibility?

Mendel? Surely not! He's simply The Man from Milk Tray - with a lot of money.

I don't seem to remember seeing a photo of Mendel with a gun. Doubt he's a bad guy to be honest; think he's a nice fun character to try and lighten the mood in certain parts of the movie.

Mendel seemed to be comic relief to me.


In contrast to the Swiss banker at the very beginning of TWINE.

Hi, this is the photo i was referring to:

Initially it made me think he was one of the bad guys.

Ah yes indeed. I do remember seeing that photo now, and I may be wrong again, but I think it's possibly from a German TV show/movie he appeared in.

Leo is the man arrested for having the bodies of Obanno and his lieutenant in his car.
