Bucking the trend here no doubt but Telly Savalas for me.

I even prefer Charles Gray to Donald Pleasence.

    Was he actually referred to as Blofeld in the unofficial, rather apaulling Never Say Nere Again? :D

    I like them all. Pleasence for his eerieness. Savalas for his skiiing. Gray for dragging up. :D

    Yup, it was the whole point. It's because McClory held the rights to Blofeld ahead of EON.

    I thought Pleasance was too much of a grotesque
    Gray too camp.
    Savalas was the best of the offical lot, but even so I couldn't quite believe him.

    I could believe Von Sydow was the head of a large criminal organisation.

    Von Sydow, The two Bond girls, and Connery are the only things really worth mentioning fron NSNA

    The bit with the casino bouncer and the cigerette case always cracks me up too

    Donald Pleaseance definately. He played a terrific Blofeld in You Only Live Twice.

    Ah ok.

    I always thought it odd that McClory gave Von Sydow's Blofeld the white cat, given that the cat was an accessory created by EON.

    It's a shame Max Von Sydow didn't get to play Blofeld in an official capacity.
