First Emma Peel and now James.

Will Her Majesty’s Service ever recover?

(I also liked him in The Untouchables and Outland.)

I always thought his role in The Name of the Rose was his best film, and best performance.

Fitting for this Halloween...

Fake letter.

It's interesting that the satirical letter was dated when Apple was near bankruptcy, the lowest point in Apple's history. In another decade the table would have been turned as Steve would have said, "I'm fυcking Steve Jobs!"

One of my favorite actors, a true gentleman, and a true Scotsman.

Although he was THE James Bond, I also enjoyed many of his other roles.

Finding Forrester
“Someone I once knew wrote that we walk away from our dreams afraid that we may fail or worse yet, afraid we may succeed. You need to know that while I knew so very early that you would realize your dreams, I never imagined I would once again realize my own.”

Somewhere in heaven he's taking a fast drive on a twisy 2-lane road in his silver Aston Martin, with a girl who's excited by fast drives.

Did he collect watches?

I don't know if he collected watches so much as just a gentleman of his era he had several, and most were pretty great.

My personal favorite, aside from the Bond films, will always be The Untouchables; so please forgive me for this definitely not-PC line, I'm just trying to quote: "That's just like one of you wops; bring a knife to a gunfight."

I always thought he was a great actor but the SNL version just added to the legend.

Godspeed!!

My favorite Sean Connery parody was "Colonel Gentleman" from the "Venture Brothers".
