[edit] Film Biography

Sheriff J.W. Pepper is a sheriff from Louisiana in USA.

In Live and Let Die, the Sheriff follows the boat chase between Bond and several other people connected with Mr. Big. The Sheriff attempts to arrest Bond but finds out that he is a secret agent from England. Later in The Man with the Golden Gun, the Sheriff is presumably on holiday in Thailand where he recognises Bond (on a boat in a river). The Sheriff is then caught in a car chase with Bond chasing Scaramanga. The Sheriff says

  • "(Pepper)I know you! (Bond) Oh No... (Pepper) You're that secret agent! That English secret agent from England".

Sheriff J.W. Pepper is mainly used as a comic relief and is known to spit out tobacco and yell out loudly anything he has on his mind. He makes crude comments on people he sees, and things that they do.
