This one time, at Bond Camp. Some have always dreamt to be Bond. Brosnan, with his first wife were passionate for him to be so, as interviews have claimed and informal chats I’ve been in. However, Mr. Craig, honest as he is, is simply cashing in, waiting for those bigger money movies to come flooding in. Now, I find it a little sad, hearing statements like that. I am, believe it or not, a Bond admirer and make no secret of my disliking Daniel Craig as a Bond choice, not as an actor. He’s a tremendous actor and I’m sure he’ll do well as a rough and tumble action man. With Bahamas done and dusted on ‘Casino’, a Gibbon pal of mine told me at the Coffee Bean the other week that Mr. Craig is in the frame of a comic book hero and a buddy action movie. I’m doubting either and will stay where he is more appreciated, in 'Munich' territory. Those of you who haven’t, check out Daniel Craig in ‘Our Friends In The North’, a BBC drama spanning about 30 years of four friends in the North of England, UK.
