The Name's The Same (ABC; Episode 7)

[koopakid17]

Mm-hmm... I'm going to defer to George.

[dougmorrisontheair]

[NOTE FROM DOUG: Recapping because we're turning the page in this thread.]

Doug: Okay, George, just a small recap. Our guest shares her first name and married last name with an actress from a famous movie franchise. The actress achieved her biggest success in the movie franchise.

This franchise is not owned by Disney. And it's not a franchise based on a comic book series.

Doug: George, with that, your turn to question Mrs. X.

[bighornbattle]

Mrs. X, is your franchise from Nickelodeon?

[dougmorrisontheair]

Mrs. X: (laughs) Ohhhh no.

Doug: If you knew what we knew.

(scattered laughter from crowd)

[bighornbattle]

Pass.

[billmcdee]

First of all I am amazed the answer was "No" to the Disney question, I thought they owned everything.

Second, I know who Mrs. X must be!

If Mr. X was Ken Kercheval, then Mrs. X must be his wife!

No, all kidding aside, was this movie franchise in the genre of comedy?

[dougmorrisontheair]

Mrs. X: (laughs) Ohhhh no.

Doug: Again -- if only you knew what we knew.

(scattered laughter from crowd)

[billmcdee]

Would I be correct to infer then that the genre of movies you are known for are of the dramatic nature?

[dougmorrisontheair]

Mrs. X: (nods head "yes") Oh, it's dramatic in nature alright.

[billmcdee]

And is this franchise of movies from before 2001, meaning the 20th century?

[dougmorrisontheair]

(inaudible reaction from judge)

Doug: Thanks for the interjection, Judge. Bill, best way to answer is this franchise began before 2001.

[billmcdee]

So it started before 2001 and continued afterward is how I interpret that.

And Mrs. X, are you still active in your film acting?

[dougmorrisontheair]

Mrs. X: I've retired from acting.

[billmcdee]

Kevin it's all yours.

[dougmorrisontheair]

Doug: Okay, Kevin. Five questions and some good information to work with. Go to it.

[koopakid17]

Mrs. X, would this franchise be considered a spy series?

[dougmorrisontheair]

Mrs. X: Absolutely.

[koopakid17]

Would this be the James Bond series?

[dougmorrisontheair]

Mrs. X: Yes it would!

(scattered cheers)

[koopakid17]

I'll see if I can put this away. Mrs. X, were you born in Great Britain?

[dougmorrisontheair]

Mrs. X: No I wasn't

Doug: You're down to two questions, Kevin.

[koopakid17]

Aha. And did you star alongside Sean Connery in any of these James Bond movies?

[dougmorrisontheair]

Mrs. X: I sure did.

Doug: Down to one question. Are you going to use it to uncover our guest's indentity, Kevin, or will you pass control?

[koopakid17]

I'm going for it.

Mrs. X, are you Ursula Andress?

[dougmorrisontheair]

Mrs. X: You're thinking I'm the namesake of the first Bond girl?




































Mrs. X: Sorry, honey, I'm not Ursula Andress.

(audience groans)

Doug: Sorry, Kevin.

George, believe it or not, that puts you in a great position with six questions to play with.

This is a good time to recap.

Our guest shares her first name and married last name with an actress from a famous movie franchise. The actress achieved her biggest success in the movie franchise.

We've just established it's the James Bond series. Our guest's namesake was not born in Great Britain -- but the namesake did star alongside Sean Connery in a 007 movie.

So, George, with that, your turn to question Mrs. X.

[bighornbattle]

Mrs. X, is your name Rosamund Pike?

[dougmorrisontheair]

Mrs. X: Oh, I think the actress is from England.




































Mrs. X: In any event, I'm not Rosamund Pike.

(audience groans)

Doug: Okay, five questions to go, George. Might want to use some of them to narrow possibilities before throwing out another name.

[bighornbattle]

Pass.

[billmcdee]

Mrs. X, was your appearance opposite Sean Connery during one of the Bond films of the 1980s?

[dougmorrisontheair]

Mrs. X: Oh no.

Doug: Down to two questions, Bill. Please use them wisely.
