One of my all time favourite actors who portrayed so many different characters in his time. I recall always wanting to be Ramirez when playing out scenes from Highlander as a teenager with my best pal, which had to be the worst Spanish accents ever

RIP Sean

You are right! Hard to spot the difference though!
Must be the film he did not get a part in!

RIP Sean, my all time favourite actor.
Always enjoyed his interviews with Michael Parkinson .

shaw him in Goldfinger about 1964!
Only 007 for many!
RIP Mr Bond!

Roger Moore was my favourite James Bond, but Sean Connery was still brilliant. R.I.P

Was just flicking through some Bond films on Amazon the other day and wondering how old he was. A great Bond in some great Bond films. RIP

Posted: **Sat Oct 31, 2020 1:27 pm**

Wonderful actor, no one could play James Bond like Connery.
RIP Mr Connery.

Wow this is sad. Best James Bond by country mile and ambassador for Schhhhotland. RIP

A few things here that I didn't know about him

RIP The man who would be King has climbed his Last Hill....."The James Bond"

Posted: **Sat Oct 31, 2020 2:41 pm**

So soon after helping Trump overcome Covid as well...

Posted: **Sat Oct 31, 2020 2:51 pm**

Quite simply a legend. RIP

Posted: **Sat Oct 31, 2020 3:01 pm**

RIP Sean. One of my all time favourite actors. He was brilliant in 'The Rock' and 'The Hunt for Red October'.

I suspect many will always think the best James Bond is the first one they saw. Connery very much the best for me too.

Posted: **Sat Oct 31, 2020 9:08 pm**

I have to agree he will be forever remembered as James bond, but for me the best i have seen from him was in The Rock, absolute brilliant role for him and brilliantly played.

Posted: **Sat Oct 31, 2020 10:14 pm**

He's not dead. This is a cover story by MI6, he is actually on an under cover mission in Russia to prevent another major Soviet plan to destabilise the West. Nevertheless I'll go along with a a sincere RIP.

Posted: **Sat Oct 31, 2020 10:42 pm**

The original and best Bond, RIP Sean.

He was much more than just the 1st well known Bond however as this resume proves https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000125/

Posted: **Sun Nov 01, 2020 1:37 am**

Just makes me realise how quickly life goes........watched loads of JB films with mum and dad no longer with me....Bond films were always so special......

Posted: **Sun Nov 01, 2020 2:24 am**

If you want a brilliant insight into SC, read Michael Caines autobiography.

Posted: **Sun Nov 01, 2020 2:27 am**

My favourite Bond, and those early films were the best.

Watched "Highlander" again yesterday

Thank god for that… I thought he’d died again, I couldn’t bear it if that happened

Posted: **Sun Jan 30, 2022 8:17 pm**

Read this and thought that Sean Connery had died, then I saw the thread was from October 2021. Phew.

So did I. I had a little sinking heart moment. Funny how these big events can be so easily forgotten.

Posted: **Sun Jan 30, 2022 8:30 pm**

The first and best James Bond by a country mile. RIP

Posted: **Sun Jan 30, 2022 8:31 pm**

Another that forgot and thought he’d died today after seeing this. I even said to the Mrs ‘oh Sean Connery has died’ she said ‘oh no has he’ …….. both as bad as each other in this house.
