You Only Live Twice

Bond is captured and the villain with the cat is revealed to be Blofeld, leader of S.P.E.C.T.R.E. MI6 breaks into the base and explodes it. Bond tosses the piranha keeper into the pool and then escapes. But so did Blofeld. Bond becomes engaged. To be continued in On Her Majesty's Secret Service.

Plot hole: Blofeld tells the bad guys that they had Bond and let him get away. The woman says, "But Bond is dead. It was in all the papers." As we saw in a paper near the start, there was a well-publicised photo of Bond, and when she met him he wasn't using any kind of disguise, so how did she not recognise him if she'd seen the papers?
