The Liparus captain is a character in the James Bond film The Spy Who Loved Me, played by Sydney Tafler.
The Liparus Captain is the captain of Karl Stromberg’s flagship, the Liparus. He is not seen until late in the film, carrying out various duties and operations in the ship’s control centre. The captain ultimately answers to Stromberg. When the American, British and Russian submarine crews escape, the captain of the Liparus is able to warn Stromberg and give the order to seal off the control centre.
Although he confidently tells Stromberg no other mishaps will occur, the Liparus Captain is killed when Bond detonates a bomb placed against the wall of the centre. As the crews storm the control centre, the captain tells Bond he is too late to derail Stromberg’s plan.
