Or head up an 80s hair metal tribute band.
Saw this film being filmed in my neighbourhood. They filmed in an area commonly used for wedding pictures called Garlock Gardens, but it's quite an expensive place to live (Google Lakeshore Mansions). One night it was really cold but I got to see Daniel from a distance doing his acting, and it's one of the greatest memories I have.
As a side note...Craig has actually co-starred with a few Bond villains (or Bond villains to be):
Sean Bean (and Gavin O'Herlihy, if you count Never Say Never Again) in Sharpe's Eagle.
Michael Lonsdale and Mathieu Almaric in Munich
Christopher Lee in The Golden Compass
Jeroen Krabbe in Young Indiana Jones Chronicles (though different episodes)
Steven Berkoff in The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

"When you read a novel, your own imagery is the most important. It's what makes reading such a wonderful thing" - Daniel Craig
Hi Guys!
I feel that this blog needs a 'happy' story in it. So today I wanted to talk to you about the Gorgeous Daniel Craig or as my Auntie called him "An utter Stud Muffin!".
Whilst I was in the Evelina Hospital they were in the middle of filming for the new James Bond Film Spectre on Westminster bridge. St Thomas's Hospital and the Evelina are literally on the bridge so I got to get involved in some of the action there!
I wasn't in the best of places on that day, I felt really down and lonely even though my brother and mother had come down to visit. All of the nurses were getting very excited because apparently there was going to be a party with a celebrity guest coming to visit us at 6:30pm. Being in a children's hospital I assumed that it would be a Children's Television Actor so I didn't get excited at all.
As the day went on my mood got worse and the party was busy being set up, I went about my usual day of moaning, attempting to play cards, popping pills and being told that my blood pressure was too high, which meant that my kidneys weren't working properly.
At about 6pm I decided that I needed to go outside and get some fresh air so myself, my brother and my mother went down to the ground floor and sat outside the entrance of the hospital. We suddenly had a rush of people come towards the door to say that we needed to go inside because the special celebrity guest was about to arrive. So being a bit annoyed I reluctantly let my brother wheel me inside the hospital again.
As we were waiting for the lift to come down a security guard approached us (omg I am starting to cringe!!) and asked if he could take the lift. So my mother started to get a bit funny because we were here first. So I turned around and fricken Daniel Craig was standing there. I turned back and stared at the lift because at this point I had only just realised that I had 2 week old hair, last nights PJ's on and the steroids had given me lovely acne all over my face and neck.
Daniels PA then let me get in the lift with him (Eeeeeeek!!) So he walked in first, then my brother wheeled me in. Now here is when I started fangirling... Daniel then took the arm of my Wheelchair and then pulled me closer towards him. (it was a sign!!). That lift journey was the longest 30 seconds of my life. He shook my hand and asked me how I was and I replied "Really tired, its been a long day.' He then asked me what my name was so for the purpose of this blog I replied with 'Belle'. (cringe moment alert!!) He then replied with "Its nice to meet you I am Daniel Craig" so being the total fangirl that I was I replied with "Yeah, I know who you are!!" Honestly thinking about it now I cant help but cringe, I could have said 'Its nice to meet you' but know I just boosted his Ego didn't I and totally embarrassed myself!
He then shook my brothers hand who went bright red. My mother wanted to get in on the action so she then blurts out "This is her excuse to get out of her A level exams" (cheers Mum!). We then got to the third floor of the Evelina and I was wheeled out.
Little things like that really do help to boost children's moral. He spent a good hour in the hospital talking to all of the parents and the patients, taking photos with the squealing nurses who were hilarious!
I did get a photo with him and I did post it all over Facebook for my friends and family to see. I also showed all of the nurses the picture and bragged about it for the next few days.
I will always remember this day and I will make sure that no one especially my dad forgets that I got in a lift with an A lister!
So that was one of the happy stories about my time in the Evelina Hospital.
See you Soon

This debate came up in the could/should be a Bond actor thread.
Indeed, I think Craig gets a bad rap on this. He hates the paparazzi and sometimes it shows. But in general, with the public, if you show him respect and kindness, he's great.
Now I remember that Sir Sean Connery's tattoo was brushed away with make-up/skin powder. But you can still spot his arm tattoo in for instance "Goldfinger" (in particular the bed scene with Jill Masterson).
Now, my question: Is Craig's tattoo brushed away with CGI in his Bond films?
I think you find it kind of sexy that he has this...one tattoo no ;-)? Tell me @GermanLady, did you ever meet Mr Craig? Shall I arrange a meeting :-P?
I have seen a picture somewhere from the set of 'Casino Royale' where you can clearly see his tattoo has been covered by make-up.
Does anyone know the one I'm talking about? I can't remember where I last saw it :(

If I ever got a chance to interview DC, I'd love to know if the money is worth the loss of privacy or if he'd prefer to go back to being an obscure character actor.
