The new betting favorite for Bond is this inane drone who belongs touring with the Jonas Brothers instead with his looks, Josh O'Connor, whoever he is, and it is a JOKE to even believe he would land the role, which is in perpetual limbo as well: Image The horses below are getting a nice laugh about this news too!

Whatever. It's not as if bookies' odds actually mean anything.

Daniel Cr-egg has been announced as the recipient of a prestigious award from the Critics' Circle. The Critics' Circle is the UK's longest-standing critics association, and on Sunday 2nd February it will be hosting the 45th London Critics' Circle Film Awards ceremony. During that ceremony, Cr-egg will be awarded the top honor, the Dilys Powell Award for Excellence in Film, which in recent years has gone to the likes of Jeffrey Wright, Michelle Yeoh, Pedro Almodóvar and Kate Winslet..........award for what, a film Queer nobody saw but they like the subject matter so toss out another award. These awards are as fake as the Nobel prizes awarded. It already started this past Sunday with the tarnished Golden Globe show.

For having played James Bond, but for playing James Bond. That's the irony, these award institutions, especially in Britain, love to shower reining and former Bonds with accolades because they are/were Bond, but never award them for their Bond performances.

Podcasters Benedict and Hannah Townsend tell followers: ‘James Norton is in the show and he has long been rumored to be the next James Bond.

‘Now, every James Bond has in their contract they cannot wear a tuxedo in any other media while they are James Bond.

‘There’s a scene in the third episode of Playing Nice where they’re at a gala and every single man in that room is wearing a tuxedo except James Norton, who was wearing a regular suit.

‘Now, admittedly his character is meant to be humbled… so it could just be some kind of character-related wardrobe. ‘But it could be that he is maybe going to be the next James Bond,’ Hannah says.Benedict goes on: ‘He might have signed the contracts already and might be precluded from wearing a tux.

‘It’s only after you’ve signed the contract. So Daniel Craig can wear a tux now in a movie. But you didn’t see him in a tux the entire time he played James Bond,’ he continues.

I think he's overthinking this. Even if Norton is chosen as Bond (and I really hope he isn't), the contract wouldn't apply to things made before he was announced.

Rrreeeaaally , that’s a direct dig at Babs .

But you know Shakespeare was thinly veiled about the scandals of his time. Maybe it’s Babs turn

Glad you are doing better Kris

I wonder how much, if any of this is coming from the Amazon camp as a rebuttal to the tug of war going on behind the scenes?

If Amazon wanted to have a go at Babs, I doubt they'd do it via a play premiering at a small theatre in Cirencester. I probably just saw the Facebook ad because I'm a Bond fan who lives fairly locally.
