James Bond sheriff

[Danny]

This USA Deep South sheriff ( Sheriff Piper?) was in a couple of James Bond films with Roger Moore.

I was watching Superman 2 last week and am sure he was in in that as the same sheriff.

Anybody got any info [please]?

Dammit! He was called Sheriff Pepper - I was convinced he was Piper, it says here (from wiki) that he actually did play the same type of character in Superman II

Clifton James became well-known for playing the comic-relief role of Sheriff J.W. Pepper in the James Bond films Live and Let Die and The Man with the Golden Gun. He also played a very similar character in both Superman II and Silver Streak.

When i was growing up,i always visualized Clifton James as being the voice behind Deputy Dawg.It wasn't clifton of course,it was Dayton Allen.It must have been the sherrif badge,hat and shape of Deputy Dawg's body that reminded me of Clifton.

Cheers mate.

But he looks just so similar to the sheriff from the cannonball run films.

Think i need to watch both the bond film and a cannonball run film at the same time.

Clifton James as Sheriff JW Pepper was funny in the James Bond movies. I laughed when he called a baby elephant ugly and got shoved into a river by it!
