Indeed, Lazenby was a decent one for me, at least he still acted very much like Bond (he's convincing as a spy, good in action and looked Bond), but Moore just wasn't Bond to me, he'd never convinced me that he can do Bond things other than to seduce women, that's all, and it's not what Bond is all just about, he needs to be more than that, and Moore just didn't, he's more of a superhero Bond for kids more than acting the character as originally described and written.
At least Lazenby was still in line with how the character was originally described and written, and like you've said @CrabKey it's more in line with Connery, still keeping in tone with the character, but Moore strayed far from it.
Agreed @CrabKey Moore is probably the least convincing actor to me as Bond, sorry (I know he has fans and I know he's fun, but it's not something that I associate with the Bond character).
Anyway, nice BTS pictures in here, although I've seen some of them many times.
Unlike Harrison Ford and Indiana Jones, this character has been allowed to go with other actors. I wonder if Bond series would have died if Lazenby had stayed on. He was merely a shell of Connery and not really his own portrayal of the character!
It's the same with Dalton really, does anyone else here would've wondered if the series would've died had he stayed on?
As much as we really liked Dalton this time, but back then, he's still wasn't that much accepted by the Public.
And Lazenby did showed a softer side of the character, something that wasn't seen before, whether we liked it or not, he's the first one to show the character's human side other than being a tough, killer macho that Connery did.
Anyway:
And some costume shots:
*As per usual, sorry for any duplicates *
You never hear much about the cars from this film: I'm not sure I knew they even used more than one Aston (I know of course it's usual to have multiples of the cars but as it's not really even used in action it wasn't certain). I wonder where they are both (were there more than two?) now.
Trivia: Diana Rigg also lived once in India when she's young, hence, she knew how to speak Indian language.
Do my eyes deceive me or is that Sid James in that third shot?
It is indeed Sid James. What a time to be alive.
Enjoy!

He’s right, you know. :x
She is, the Queen! I mean, the Sultry Queen!
I'm female, and I really agree, she also have a beautiful face, and not just that, she's also one of the Best Actresses of the 20th Century, still a question why she didn't won an Oscar for some of her performances?
Rigg's acting would even give Meryl Streep a run for her money!
She's also intelligent and ahead of her time, she's tough that she quitted Avengers because she's not paid high enough, Rigg felt like a woman living in present time, she's very modern!
One of my favorite Actresses of all time.
Also I'd love to see that deleted rooftop chase someday, I've always thought OHMSS missed a bit more action in the middle third of the film
