Thank you; here's some more questions about James Bond characters:
Who is responsible for this exchange with 007?
"I've always tried to teach you two things: First, never let them see you bleed."
Bond: "And the second?"
"Always have an escape plan."
Who did 007 say this to?
“That’s a Smith & Wesson and you’ve had your six.”
What was 007 referring to when he said this?
"I think he got the point."

That has stirred something in my memory. I think it is when Philip Locke (Vargas, I think) gets a surprise from a harpoon after playing peeping tom.

It was a harpoon, actually - see below.
Yes, it was.
You have the full answer - well done.
I'm awarding the prize to Gloster, who can now don the tuxedo and order a suitable drink!

It's always either Churchill, Oscar Wilde, or Betjamin

Somewhere in the recesses of my mind I recall that Tulips have a connection to Turkey, so I will go with Turkey.

For some reason, Hungary springs to mind.

Neil Armstrong was the first person to step onto the Lunar surface and Eugene Cernan the last person to step off the Lunar surface.
Who was the penultimate person to step onto the Lunar surface?

Both correct. The penultimate person to leave the Lunar surface was Harrison Schmitt.
DaleCooper got in just first so his turn to lift off to the next question.
