    Who won an Oscar for his portrayal of Popeye in 1971? Who was the third actor to play James Bond? Which Carpenter went on to have a solo career? He was unlucky in space and thought it was due to bacon? Names please, and, of course, the somewhat obtuse connection.

                      Who won an Oscar for his portrayal of Popeye in 1971? Gene Hackman. Who was the third actor to play James Bond? If you only count movies and don't count Casino Royal then the third is Roger Moore. If you count casino royal, the third is George Lazonby Which Carpenter went on to have a solo career? Harrison Ford. He was unlucky in space and thought it was due to bacon? Tom Hanks As for the connection. Not a clue.

                                      Third actor to play James Bond... If you really being a pedant it could be Sean Connery as he reprised the role between George Lazenby and Roger Moore...

                                        Well Done on the names. What about the connection?

                                          Sean Connery. There was a radio and TV bond prior to the movies.

                                          Bill Paxton? The connection is that Lady Gaga would willingly sleep with anyone who can do an impression of the aforementioned.

                                          Names are right, but connection is not the one you have suggested (although it too may be factually accurate).
