......... apparently named after Robbored. 

How?

Poor lad shattered both hands 'overdoing it' watching Gary / Lee Johnson on youtube.

 

P.S. And it's not true Andrea Leadsom is one of the latest Bond girls.

It's a bit like new Dr Who, it looks good and people seem to like it but having grown up with the originals, for better or worse,  it's just not the same.

They've had to make him more PC and 'real' but in doing so it just looks like they copied Jason Bourne.

Casino Royal probably the pick of the Craig movies for me.

More PC?  Not even Roger Moore followed a sexual assault victim into the shower!

Oscar-winning actor Rami Malek is to play a villain in the 25th official James Bond film, it was confirmed at the movie's launch event in Jamaica.

Malek won the Academy Award for best actor in February for playing singer Freddie Mercury in Bohemian Rhapsody.

Fleabag creator Phoebe Waller-Bridge is among the new film's writers. But the title of the movie, which will be released next April, wasn't revealed.

It will be Daniel Craig's fifth and final outing as 007.

Malek wasn't at the official launch but sent a video message. "I'm stuck here in New York in production but I'm very much looking forward to joining the whole cast and crew," he said.

"I will be making sure Mr Bond does not have an easy ride in this, his 25th outing. See you all soon."

After watching that, Craig joked that he was "scared" about what lay in store for Ian Fleming's suave secret agent.

It was also confirmed that Ralph Fiennes and Ben Whishaw will return as M and Q respectively, with Naomie Harris coming back as Moneypenny. Lea Seydoux is reprising her Madeleine Swann character from 2015's Spectre.

'No title, unfortunately'

As well as Malek, new cast members will include Captain Marvel star Lashana Lynch and Game Night actor Billy Magnussen.

They will be joined by fellow Bond newcomers Ana de Armas, Dali Benssalah and David Dencik.

Asked about the plot, producer Barbara Broccoli said: "Bond is not on active service when we start the film. He is actually enjoying himself in Jamaica.

"He starts his journey here. We've built an extraordinary house for him... We've got quite a ride in store for Mr Bond - and no title, unfortunately."

Waller-Bridge, who was also behind the first series of Killing Eve, is just the second female writer in Bond history - after Johanna Harwood, who worked on Dr No and From Russia With Love.

The other co-writers on Bond 25 are seasoned Bond scribes Neal Purvis and Robert Wade along with Scott Z Burns, whose credits include 2007's The Bourne Ultimatum.

Sad but inevitable. The end of a great franchise.

James Bond as a man retires, but the 007 mantle, and presumably the future of the franchise is being taken over by Lashana Lynch.

It's not like James Bond is as good as Paolo Maldini. Given he retired, only fair his squad number got passed on.

James Bond is one of few franchises that actually has huge potential for expansion, you could create any number of 00 agents and be able and introduce them to the series, from recollection there's only been Sean Bean as 006 we've seen, said for ages I'd like to see Bond linking up with other 00 agents even if its only for one scene. You could cast high profile names as other 00 agents and have spin off movies if they're successful, I'm hoping Lynch's role if she takes over as 007 is part of the plot as in 'you left James, what did you think we wouldn't replace you?' And then sorted with a new actor for the next film.

Terrible news for T ' Pau  as it was thought the theme tune and fight scene sound effects would be perfect for them after their early success with the classic China In Your Hand ..

I think in one of the Roger Moore movies there were other 00 agents, they were getting killed by the bad guy and so Bond was as to investigate.
