Michael Gothard as Emile Locque in ‘For Your Eyes Only’.

Biography: Locque is a brutal killer who is originally involved with drug syndicates in Marseille and Hong Kong, eventually becoming an enforcer in the Brussels underworld. He is arrested and sent to prison in Namur, Belgium; however, he breaks out after strangling his psychiatrist. Locque is known to leave a dove pin on his victims after killing them.

Locque is first seen at the home of Hector Gonzales, where he pays Gonzales on behalf of Kristatos for killing Melina Havelock’s parents. The Havelocks are on a special assignment to find a sunken ship that holds ATAC, a machine used by the Ministry of Defence to communicate and coordinate the Royal Navy’s fleet of Polaris submarines. Bond later follows Locque to the Alps where he is attacked while skiing by both Locque and another hitman. Later Locque returns and kills Luigi Ferrara, Bond’s Italian contact, and leaves his signature dove pin for Bond to find.

After going to Greece Bond learns from Milos Columbo that Kristatos is working for the KGB and attempting to find the missing ATAC on their behalf. On a mission to prove that it is Kristatos, Columbo involves Bond in a raid of one of Kristato’s warehouse where Locque is found inside. After attempting to escape, Locque becomes trapped in his car on the edge of a cliff after being shot by Bond. Bond subsequently tosses Locque his trademark dove pin that he left on Ferrara and then gives the car a kick over the edge.
