I'm going to come across as a berk trying to save face here, but I knew that.
The mental image of Bob Holness doing the Baker Street sax is too magnificent to abandon just because it isn't real.

Let's not get carried away with his acting repertoire. Roger "Eyebrow" Moore, surely.

Had to vote Shawn.

But the Craig era may be the best films.

I like Sean , Roger and Daniel, Bonds all for different reasons . But my favourite is a little left field it’s Pierce Brosnan.

More importantly my favourite Bond girl is Diana Rigg. 😀

I'd have loved to have seen Clive Owen play Bond,

I read that as Clive James, I've always thought he would have been a bit of a smoothy with the ladies.

 

[matticus]

It's a shame they haven't found a role for Riggs daughter - I think she'd fit right in

North of the border, I thought he was referred to as Scotland's favourite Irishman.

Errr no.
Now if you had said Scotland's favourite milkman.....

Edit
Woops, perhaps that was what @tyred was alluding to.

Timothy Dalton came closest to the actual character.
