THE PUZZLE CORNER: JULY 18, 2020

😎FUN FACT
Thus far Roger Moore has made the most movie appearances as British Secret Agent James Bond but because of the delays between films, current Bond actor Daniel Craig has the longest tenure in the role, to date.

We haven’t done a themed Puzzle Corner in a while, so...

NUMBER PLEASE
Get ready! We ask the question, but the answer is just a number.
How many movies has Roger Moore portrayed James Bond in?

TRIVIA TIME⌚
Whatever your answer to this week’s NUMBER PLEASE, can you name them all?

FAMOUS FIRSTS🥇
The first Bond novel written by creator Ian Fleming was NOT the basis for the first Bond movie. Can you name both titles?

THE 50/50 CHANCE
Just like a regular TRIVIA TIME question, except there are just two possible answers, hence the even odds of getting it right. Ready?
TRUE OR FALSE: Actor George Lazenby made only one appearance as James Bond.

NEXT?
What is the next item(s) in the sequence below?
Sean Connery, George Lazenby, Roger Moore…

BEFORE AND AFTER
Two separate items share at least one word, and so can be combined to create something new. Based upon the clue below, do you know what the new thing is?
A James Bond Double Feature: Allow to exist until tomorrow?

GEEZ. One more puzzle, especially if it could have been COMMON BONDS, and we’d have 007!😉

We’ll reveal all next weekend but for now, let’s open up THE ANSWERS BOX📦 and discover the results from the July 11, 2020 Puzzle Corner.

TRIVIA TIME⌚
In what sport is a Jack the ball?
Bocce.
One player throws the Jack into a designated zone. The other players then try to knock the Jack out of the zone by bowling their own balls against it. Like a larger scale version of marbles.

REBUS
Something familiar is represented in the image below. Do you know what it is?
R|E|A|D|I|N|G = Reading between the lines.
