    I have never heard of one existing.
    I do know that they had him firmly in their sights after Connery refused to do LALD so maybe they never did one.
    If they did then it is lost or archived somewhere.

    Roger's is one audition I'd love to see! I'd enjoy seeing everyones really- particularly the ones who didn't make it-- like Dr No, OHMSS, LALD and so on.

    I'd KILL to see Dalton audition in 1969. (Did he actually audition and change his mind? Or did hey just want him to audition?)

    Just as Remington Steele was Brosnan's? That does make sense now that you mentioned it

    Brosnan tested, beforehand. As I understand it RM never screen-tested.

    Just like every single movie or TV series Brosnan was in during the 80s-90s. He built hos whole pre-Bond career on the role he did not have yet!

    Damn I was about to say it lol. Broccoli and Saltzman essentially had 7 years worth of screentests. If you listen to the LALD dvd documentary Moore makes it sounds they simply one day out of the blue just asked him. They had known him for years and he basically was the TV version of James Bond during the 60s.

    I watched The Man Who Haunted Himself a year ago or so now, a film made in 1970. At one point he says something like:

    "Espionage isn't all James Bond and Her Majesty's Secret Service"

    Haha.
