No, I think you must have this confused with the woman who played Honey West
on TV. Rumor has it she died during the filming of an episode in which she
was covered with honey, effectively clogging all her pores. Or maybe it was
Buddy Ebsen . . .

How was Buddy Ebsen clogged because Anne Francis (who played Honey West) was
covered with honey?
(At least it wasn't Churchill, Disraeli, or Gladstone, and it likely wasn't
a snuff-honey film.)
Anne Francis was one of the stars of Forbidden Planet, along with Jeffrey
Hunter who was to be Captain Pike of the Enterprise for more than just
the original pilot episode and the recycled two-parter the Menagerie. The
doctor in FP was played by Warren Stevens, who later guest starred on ST:TOS
as the leader of the Kelvins. Jeff Hunter died in a freak accident before
William Shatner was picked to replace him as NBC picked up the series. Jeff's
last movie was Brainstorm, not to be confused with Natalie Wood's last movie
with the same title. Curiously enough, Shatner had starred in the Outer Limits
episode "Cold Hands, Warm Heart" and played an astronaut who worked for
Project Vulcan, and had a doctor as a personal friend who figured in the
storyline about his body temperature being quite a bit different from 98.6.
Said doctor was played by Malachi Throne, who played Noah Bain on It takes a
Thief starring Robert Wagner, Natalie Wood's husband, and also playing
Commodore J. R. Mendes on the ST:TOS double-length episode the Menagerie
mentioned above. The star of FP is Walter Pidgeon, who also starred as the
Admiral in the movie version of Irwin Allen's Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea,
which later became a TV series with Richard Basehart as the Admiral. Irwin
Allen also made another undersea movie called City Beneath the Sea starring
Robert Wagner, which has many parallels, including a similar role of an
authority figure played by Richard Basehart and some obviously ripped-off
special effects.
In any case, Buddy Ebsen was originally a dancer, which he eventually
demonstrated in at least one episode of Barnaby Jones, costarring Lee
Meriweather, who guest-starred on ST:TOS as Osira's images (I am for Kirk,
etc). The Buddy Ebsen story most circulated is that he was to play the
Tin Man in the Wizard of Oz, but was allergic to the metallic makeup he
would have to wear, so turned down the role. Eventually, he went to
Disney and costarred in Davey Crockett as Davey's compadre George. Davey
Crockett was a major hit in the '50's, and led to the ever-popular
Davey Crockett song, which was originally recorded by Bill Hayes, who
later was to become a Soap Star on Days of Our Lives. Eventually, Ebsen
scored as Jeb Clampett on the Beverly Hillbillies, with Max Baer Jr. as
Jethro. Max Baer played a crazed redneck Sheriff in Macon County Line. The
sequel, Return to Macon County starred Nick Nolte and Don Johnson. Johnson
has appeared with his wife Melanie Griffith in various films. Melanie
Griffith's mother is Tippi Hedren, whose most famous role is in Alfred
Hitchcock's The Birds. Recently Melanie Griffith starred in Shining Through
with Michael Douglas. Michael Douglass is remembered for his role in The
Streets of San Francisco costarring with Karl Malden. Karl Malden was the
star of the movie Bombers B-52 with Natalie Wood and Ephraim Zimbalist Jr.
Ephraim Zimbalist Jr. and Roger Smith starred in 77 Sunset Strip with Edd
"Kooky" Byrnes inspiring the song "Kooky, Kooky, lend me your comb" sung
by Connie Stevens and featuring Edd Byrnes. Roger Smith today mostly
manages his wife Ann-Margret who appeared in Bye Bye Birdie with Dick Van Dyke
and Janet Leigh, mother of Jamie Leigh Curtis and wife of Tony Curtis. Tony
Curtis and Janet Leigh appeared in The Vikings, with Kirk Douglas, Michael
Douglas' father.

and TV. There are a few corrections and additions:
Anne Francis did appear with Jeffrey Hunter in a few movies, but Jeff wasn't
in Forbidden Planet; the hero was Leslie Neilsen back when he was a straigt
man. Comic relief is provided by Earl Holliman, especially with Robbie the
Robot, whose voice was Marvin Miller, better known as Michael Anthony, the
man who gave away 1,000,000 dollars (tax free) of John Beresford Tipton III's
fortune to some poor wretch on each episode of TV's The Millionaire. (Can
anyone name JBT3's estate?) Earl Holliman is also known for costarring in
PoliceWoman with Angie Dickinson, who in turn costarred with Gregory Peck
and Tony Curtis in Captain Newman, MD.
Davy Crockett is the corrected spelling for the Tennesseean mentioned.
The movie City Beneath the Sea starred Stuart Whitman and Robert Wagner, and
featured Robert Colbert, who played one of the three crew members on the ship
in Amazon Women on the Moon. (The others are Laird Creagar and Joey Travolta,
who was carrying the monkey.) The movie was apparently an attempt to recycle
some of the special effects (and actors) of both the movie and TV version
of Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea; all three are Irwin Allen productions.
Richard Basehart appears in two of these, as the US President in CBtS, and
as the Admiral on the TV VttBotS, costarring with David (Al) Heddison, who is
also known as the original doomed scientist in the original version of The
Fly, with Vincent Price, who appeared in the sequel, only the scientist is
now Brett Halsey.

Well, her tender lips may be sweeter than Honey, but Clifton Clowers protects
her there. Also, I believe it's the bears and the birds, not bees.
In any case, you're thinking of the Golden Girl in Goldfinger who dies
of skin-clog-induced problems. (Honor Blackman as Pussy Galore?)
Shirley Bassey sang the theme of the same name on Goldfinger, as opposed to
Paul McCartney who sang Live and Let Die.
Perhaps a more amusing James Bond item:
Former Saint and later James Bond Roger Moore and Stacey Keach star in 1975's
Street People where Moore plays a Mafia Consuliari. When asked to carry out
some physical act for the mob, Moores says "who do you think I am, 007?"

Or David Niven or Peter Sellers or William Holden or Charles Boyer or even
Orson Welles (who won't play James Bond before his time). Most people
don't consider "Casino Royale" (the movie) to be part of the popular movie
series, since it's a parody of them.
ob Hollywoodfact: I am related to someone semi-famous in Hollywood. My
mother's first cousin was Helen Mack, whose most famous role is starring in
Son of Kong with Robert Armstrong, star of the original King Kong (and
also Mighty Joe Young). Fay Wray refused to do the sequel, thus giving Helen
her "big break". Bruce Cabot, the hero of King Kong and Helen Mack made a
*** movie in 1939 The Mystery of the White Room, arguably her best film.
Interestingly enough, the director of all three of the Robert Armstrong
monkey movies was Ernest B. Schoedsack, who is credited with giving a career
start to a young special-effects man who worked with those who did King Kong,
named Ray Harryhausen. Ray Harryhausen is generally considered the "source"
for all SFX people today (Douglas Trumbull, John Dykstra, etc. will pay
homage to Ray Harryhausen as their mentor, etc. These are the men who
did the effects in 2001, Star Trek, Star Wars, etc.)

That's okay--my mother's second cousin was the producer of "The Rookies,"
as well as that cop show that starred Pat Morita, better known for his
work on Happy Days and the three Karate Kid movies, and who was recently
featured in Honeymoon in Vegas, though he didn't appear in any of the
Las Vegas scenes, as he played a Hawaiian taxi-cab driver (not to be
confused with the TV series Taxi or Hawaii 5-O, neither of which starred
Judd Nelson). Honeymoon in Vegas, whose initials spell HIV, the virus
that eventually killed Rock Hudson and Anthony Perkins, who starred in
Fear Strikes Out, was Nicholas Cage, who is a much-underrated comic actor,
as demonstrated by his work in Moonstruck, Wild at Heart, and Raising
Arizona.
Furthermore, my grandmother appeared on camera for a full ten seconds in
the documentary "The Huddled Masses." And my family was featured in
a 1983 US News & World Report story on the fad of home computers, because
we were unique in that we had *two* home computers, both of which were
Atari 800's, which were actually more advanced than Atari 2600's. Atari
was later bought up by Jack Tramiel, the founder of Commodore, and
most of Atari's engineers went on to design the Commodore Amiga.

Well, Dr. No isn't in Roger Ebert's 1992 Video Home Companion, but
I'm pretty sure that _Casino Royale_ (The movie) came before any of
the other Bond movies, and was therefore not a parody of them, but a
parody of the books.

followed by _Dr. No_)

Unfortunately for you, I can provide references (and thus spawn yet another
AFU motto, one never expects someone to provide references (as opposed to
the Spanish Inquisition):
Casino Royale 1967 with Peter Sellers, David Niven, Ursula Andress, Woody
Allen, Charles Boyer, Orson Welles, Deborah Kerr, William Holden, and
Jean-Paul Belmondo. To quote Scheuer's Movies on TV book: "It's a spoof of
all the James Bond spy adventures..."
Dr. No 1962 with Sean Connery, Ursula Andress, Joseph Wiseman, Jack Lord,
Bernard Lee and Anthony Dawson. Again quoting Schuer: "First of the
James Bond extravaganzas...."
I also recollect that there was an earlier movie that may have incidentally
mentioned James Bond as a minor character; thus it's possible that there
was another one-shot James Bond role for an actor.

You forgot to mention that Robert Colbert was also one of the stars
of "The Time Tunnel"; one of the early episodes was set on board
the maiden voyage of the Titanic, which was of course at sea...
Come to think of it, the premise for "The Time Tunnel" wasn't entirely
unlike that of "Quantum Leap", except that they didn't know how to keep
it going for more than one season. (You can only do so many dinosaur
episodes...)

Yes, another Irwin Allen production, but undersea isn't on the sea.
And you forgot to mention James Darren of the Time Tunnel and also Whit
Bissell, who was also in at least one of the other Irwin Allen items. James
Darren is also remembered for his top-40 hit Goodbye Cruel World (I'm off to
join the Circus; please Mr. Barnum, save a place for me).
Robert Colbert was a regular on the Soap The Young and the Restless until
he was replaced by Jerry Douglas who appeared in the Outer Limits episode
about the Martian sand dragons with Adam West of TV Batman fame and also
Robinson Crusoe on Mars (and Mara of the Wilderness, a movie that Scheuer
forgot to list in his book!), and featuring Ted Knight years before he was
in the Mary Tyler Moore show as Ted Baxter.
Since we have already mentioned StarTrek in this thread, it is noteworthy
that William Shatner not only appeared on the Outer Limits with Malachi
Throne and the plotline revolves around a "Project Vulcan", but also in
the famous Twilight Zone episode about the monster on the plane's wing that
no one else ever sees. This was also redone for the Twilight Zone movie which
had some SNL members in it, and was also parodied on SNL with Martin Short and
Jesse Jackson, who walks off the set refusing to finish the skit.
Also, Leonard Nimoy of StarTrek is known for various projects, from directing
movies (even non-ST ones), starring in later versions of the original but
revamped Mission Impossible, costarring in the remake of the Invasion of the
Bodysnatchers, etc., but is anyone familiar with his earlier work as about
fifth lead in a serialized space thriller called either Satan's Satellites
or Zombies of the Stratosphere. I think the original is the series from
1952 (!) and a somewhat later pared-down feature film version is the other.
Martin Landau appeared in an Outer Limits episode as a mutant (The Man
Who Was Never Born), and later Mission Impossible with Barbara Bain, and
later still with Barbara Bain in Space: 1999. (And more recently in the
movie about Tucker.) Nick Tate of Space: 1999 appeared in the ST:TNG episode
as the flakey pilot who strands Picard and Wesley on a desert planet where
there is this shielded fountain and device which eventually wraps Tate up.
There was an early '70's TV show called Starlost which starred Keir Dullea
of 2001, which was produced by SFX person Douglass Trumbull, who did the
effects for 2001, Starlost, and also some of the StarTrek movies. One of
the guest stars was Walter Koenig who plays Chekov on ST:TOS and movies. I
believe there is a "movie" shown infrequently which is actually a compilation
of several episodes from the video-taped series reprocessed to look more like
film.
