THis sounds like a function for the find command in terminal...
Open terminal and type:
find /VOlumes/BackUpDisk/ -name '*some*text*' -print
The above will search the disk for any file that has the words 'some' and
'text' in the file name and output the resulting file.
If you think
Oh, hey, I hadn't thought of doing it that way. :) Thanks!

Keeping in mind that I'm using Snow Leopard, is it possible to search an entire
700GB backup drive full of Time Machine backups for a specific file name, say,
the girl who played with fire? I know it's there, but can't manually search
all my backup folders, because I get no permission to read,
