Has anyone ever come across this before......It might be old news, So I apologise now if it is. Fascinating none the less. Hello to you all by the way. I was a member many moons ago but my account seems to have been deleted. I just thought it worth coming back here to share this with you. Once again, apologies if it's been discussed before :)

    Honestly, only one of these guys looks the part, and that's Lazenby, no? ;-)

    Thanks very much......
    And I totally agree with you. There's a good 30 pics from the auditions to look at on that page, and I've honestly never come across them before. The guy in the middle maybe has the look, not sure where they were going with the rest of them though :)

    Apart from Anthony Rogers (looks like Lazenby!) and Richardson, how did the other three got down to final 5 out of 400 candidates, I'll never know.





    Edit: After looking at the rest of the pics... Even richardson!?

    Sorry to resurrect a dead thread, but I may have come across a holy grail:

    Could this be a photo from Timothy Dalton's Audition??????

    It looks like the same set-up that we've seen in Sam Neil, James Brolin and even Pierce's auditions from the behind the scenes DVD

    Thoughts?

    Well, that's got me thinking now. How did you find this picture @Master_Dahark?

    Oh, Samuel, I've found a GOLDMINE!! It's a forum that's in another language-- I have no idea what the hell anyone's saying but the pictures!!!!!!! There's 30+ pages-- 90% are totally new to me!

    I'll post the link over in the 'Rare and Unseen' thread, since this was the only one that looked like an audition sort of setting
