Tough question because I love all the eras that span the collection, so I end up picking a few.
Goldfinger
Octopussy
Live and let die
Casino Royale
Skyfall |

The older cheesier ones maybe..the new ones with danny Craig I don't like..take themselves far too seriously. Closer to the book maybe yadda yadda but I can't watch them..they're generic action movies now. I want to see a dude ski off a mountain on a crocodile that turn into a helicopter in the union jack colors and shit like that  |

Casio Royale first closely followed by the Living Daylights. Daniel Craig is my favourite Bond, despite the fact after the first film all the others have got steadily worse |

"Remove Skyfall, add in Spectre....multitask fail moment  "
Question?
Who was the first Brit to play the role of James Bond
No looking it up on the web, just say what you think
I will respond if someone gets it correct |

I like them all except Never Say Never Again. Dreadful!
OHMSS is sadly underrated, the later Roger Moore ones were a bit weak (Moonraker?)
As for favourite, I’ve always had a soft spot for From Russia With Love |

Sean Connery, serious crush on him when I was a teenager, so any of his films.
Have to admit, I've always had a thing for Daniel Craig though.
I'd quite happily drive off into the sunset in his DB5

Barry Nelson played him on screen first
Bob Holness voiced a radio production
Stuntman Bob Simmons was the silhouette Bond down the gun barrel at the start of Dr. No
I’m something of a Bond fan
And apparently I look like Daniel Craig if you believe my veris ladies  |

"Christopher Plummer? (He’d Canadian and about the right age to have taken the part back in the day)
Radio....Tony Blackburn?  "
Lol no miles out
I am only interested in the actor on the radio
He died I think a few yrs ago !!
Yep 2012
And funny enough I was told British
But was born in South Africa
But became a British citizen

Btw Roger more played him once on tv
The 1st tv series was an actor called bob simmons, circa1962 before that Barry Nelson a Californian
The radio actor starred in the role in 1956 |

That’s all a little muddled (as per my post above)
Barry Nelson was 1954 (as Jimmy Bond because the studio wanted an American spy - IanFleming hated it!)
Bob Holness was 1956 in a South African radio production
Bob Simmons was 1962 in the opening sequence of Dr. No |

I’m stumped  Anyone? I do have a bit of trivia regarding Bond though; Christopher Lee who played the villain Scaramanga in The Man With The Golden Gun was in fact related to Ian Flemming (they were cousins I believe) |

Totally agree.
Daniel Craig's Bond is little more than a glorified bouncer. |
