That's him, I got the surname wrong. I was trying to find the american who played 'Jimmy Bond' in a version of Casino Royale but he was the best I could find.

In 1954 a television production of Casino Royale appeared as an episode of the CBS Climax! Mystery Theatre anthology series. Barry Nelson played Bond (as an American agent), dubbed "Card Sense Jimmy Bond".

Thats the guy, I knew the surname but couldnt remember his first name. Watching QI on Dave gives you all sorts of normally useless information.  ;D

They were given clothing by the Yanks when they landed  ::)

This is him from the White Star Line Company Records. He was a chef on the ship.
