    Great to hear about your eye's improvement, Willy!

    I put this on another thread, but I just thought I'd post this here, too. I am curious if anyone already knew this, about Sean's brother or about this old movie:

    Neil Connery
    The younger brother of Bond star Sean, Neil’s most famous work came in 1967 - playing a British spy in Italian spoof ‘O.K. Connery’. The surreal (and very meta) plot saw the nation's best spy have to be replaced by his younger brother to take on an evil crime syndicate. Bizarrely, the movie also featured a number of other actors from the Bond franchise, including M star Bernard Lee, and Moneypenny actress Lois Maxwell.

    Yes, I am familiar with this movie. I think it was mentioned in "The Essential Bond" book. It also had Adolfo Celli and Daniela Bianchi in it, I believe.

    <a href= O.K. Connery Trailer</a> Looks good

    It looks hilarious (It was too much for me when Lois Maxwell appeared). Something rather reminiscent of CR67...

    Showing my age now, but I remember this April Fool's joke from 25 years ago.

    I remember the mood in that very studio just two weeks later when the tragedy of Hillsborough unfolded before our eyes.

    Martin Freeman will be portraying Richard III late this year it seems.

    Cumberbatch will be Hamlet (I forget when, this year), and Martin will be Richard III. Good to get those Shakespearean urges satisfied. :)
