The article on Joe Don Baker states he is one of six actors to play different roles in offical James Bond movies. However, I believe you left out at least one. The actress Martine Bestwick (not sure of spelling) played a friendly agent, Paula, in Thunderball, plus one of the gypsy dancers in From Russia With Love. And, st least one source says she also was in the opening credits of Dr. No.

Also, Anthony Dawson, who played Professor Dent in Dr. No, apparently played an uncredited Bloefeld in From Russia With Love, and Thunderball. You know, where all you see is his torso and the white cat.

Perhaps these points are stretching the intend of the discussion, but inquiring minds may want to know!

What about his role in the multi-BAFTA winning series, Edge of Darkness in 1985? I believe that he was nominated for a BAFTA that year. It was a big hit in the UK.
