How about Rupert Penry-Jones? He is in UK TV program spooks. He has blonde hair, but does not look like a {BJMDDS and Skywalker please insert insult}.

Not perfect but a better look than DC.

He has made a BBC TV adaption of The 39 Steps which will be shown as Christmas. When I first saw a TV trailer for the programme, I thought Penry-Jones was Daniel Craig! Of course Penry-Jones is much more handsome.

Maybe Barbara should consider Penry-Jones.

Spy'd play Bond like a shot

EXCLUSIVE AS SPOOKS STAR RUPERT REVELS IN RIPPING COP ROLE FOR ITV THRILLER WHITECHAPEL, HE REVEALS..

By Amy Nelmes

You would think telly action man Rupert Penry-Jones had done the lot... He's been blown to bits in Spooks, gone to hell and back in The 39 Steps and tomorrow night will be hunting down a mad killer in the gory new ITV drama Whitechapel.

But like most hunky young actors Rupert, 38, dreams of being the ultimate action man- BOND.

Although the current 007 star Daniel Craig, 40, is nowhere near MI6 pensionable age, fresh-faced Rupert would love to step into his shoes.

Rupert's name was mentioned when previous Bond Pierce Brosnan quit the part and he says: "Maybe at the moment I don't look old enough but perhaps I'll get a shot at it when Daniel Craig moves on from the role.

"For a lot of actors, myself included, it's a dream part."

Not for the current incumbent, though.

He's too good looking, IMO. Babs Broccoli likes her men a bit ugly. :mrgreen:

Apologies for dragging this thread up, but I've only now found it.

Rupert Penry-Jones is my choice to take over a.s.a.p.

And for RP-J's first lead Bond Girl (I think she would decline, but if I were in charge of casting, I'd make the offer all the same)...
