PALMER: ‘YOUNGER CRAIG WASN’T SUAVE ENOUGH TO PLAY BOND’
British actress PATSY PALMER couldn’t believe it when she saw her old friend DANIEL CRAIG as superspy JAMES BOND - because he was never that suave when she knew him.
The hunky British actor has wowed critics and fans with his performance in CASINO ROYALE, but Palmer was shocked to see him as 007 because she never thought he was suitable James Bond material.
The pair worked together on an episode of UK sitcom DROP THE DEAD DONKEY in the early 90s.
She recalls, "He was very talented but I never in a million years imagined he would be James Bond. Those were the days when we still associated Bond with suave, old school actors such as SEAN CONNERY and ROGER MOORE.
"Daniel didn’t have a hint of suave about him."
