Our Word Is Our Bond

You read on Monday that we are tasked with keeping some celebs free from harm, and that's true. We even have the responsibility for Bond - James, that is, 007 himself. A character we can truly identify with (although none of his gadgets ever came close to gems like the Lobster Rage Fist, but that's a whole other ball of wax).

In fact, you probably weren't even aware that ALL the Bond actors are still with us, but they are.

There's Sir Sean Connery, 86, for many the ultimate Bond, the classic Bond, Bond replete. Sean may have retired from acting, but he still rocks the tartan.
That's Michael in the background. Or is it Clark? We'll never tell.
Then you have the most maligned Bond, the man who more or less conned Albert Broccoli into letting him be Bond even though he'd only been in a couple commercials. How? Bought an ex-Connery suit, borrowed a Rolex, and knocked a stunt guy out cold during the screen test. George Lazenby, 77, had some serious cojones. And even though his hair is white, he's still got the moves.

The eyes of his wax model are secret Unbelieva-cameras.

And then of course there's Sir Roger Moore, the man who can say more with the raise of an eyebrow than a dozen Kenneth Branaghs. 

89 and still cool. You should read his Twitter feed.

Not only that, but we're keeping our eyes on Dalton, Brosnan and Craig too.
