Michael G Wilson Cameo?

Watched QOS last night on Blueray and apart from thinking how good most of it is (controversial stuff on this site) I noticed that the man in the hotel reception after Bond kills the guy in his room in Port au Prince looks like Michael G Wilson. I'm probably being thick and everybody already knows, but did anyone else notice this?

    Yes you are correct, it is him.

    Wilson has been known to make cameos in Bond films and has done since 'For Your Eyes Only' I think it was?

    Continuously since The Spy Who Loved Me but he did his first in Goldfinger as one of the men breaking in during The Fort Knox invasion. He is the tallest man standing next to the truck closest to the gate at the gold depository.

    Well, actually it was TSWLM, and he was also in GF (what a brilliant film with which to make a debut. :D)

And when they start not smiling back—that’s an earthquake. and then you get yourself a couple of spots on your hat, and you’re finished. Nobody dast blame this man. A salesman is got to dream, boy. It comes with the territory." Death of a Salesman

    All that hard work of being the producer's son let up to that moment. :p

    No I kid. Micheal comes off as a smart and capable man.
