    People are voting down Tim in the Bond Performance Elimination game. Aaaaarrg!

    He is in with a tough crowd ....and he was still wooden and 'acting' in parts.

    One of my older work colleagues, who seems fairly "in tune" with the knowledge of Bond and Fleming, told me he rewatched TLD and LTK last weekend. His verdict? He boarderline preferred LTK but said that Tim was "still wooden" and "didn't flow".

    That's how I see it,except I do like LTK (mainly due to Sanchez and his crowd) a lot more than TLD.

    What about Brosnan? Oops, he's out completely. ;) Which i'm a bit surprised at, as I thought there was a lot of Bosnan love around here.

    I did think that GE and TND might have lasted longer,and tbh he was good in DAD as well.
    I hope people arnt thinking of the films rather than the performance here,which I think is happening in places.

    People describe Dalton as "wooden"??! What is wrong with the world! One thing is Trump, Putin, Brexit, climate change deniers, right wing populism, ISIS, North Korea, but this, THIS?!! I am losing faith in humanity!

    Wooden? No. Mannered? Possibly.

    Why do we suddenly need all these various pension arrangements? You never needed to think much about this stuff earlier.

    The smugness often found rooting in suburban life is a pet hate for me too.

    As a Connery and Craig fan, I must say I stand with Dalton and refuse to rush to attack.

    Haha. @MajorDSmythe, when I heard Dalton was being voted against my honest first thought was, "Oh, that means Pierce must already be out" and I was actually right. Heavens... :))

    At least 7 of my top 10 would be from Sean and Dan, so we're not that different... ;)

    I'm greatly annoyed by the songs 7 Years and Sugar (Maroon 5). I was forced to hear them on the radio plenty of times while I was in an internship. I dislike them ever since.

    Because they're Spectre agents. Like Connery - you should have gone with your instincts on this one. It's equivalent to Grant ordering the red wine in FRWL
