    Sir Sean Connery has not been well for some time, according to his family, yet somehow he was still cool enough to die in his sleep in the Bahamas at the age of 90. I think he spoiled us with his timelessness. RIP Bond...James Bond.

      Yeah I always thought that showed an amazing lack of imagination on his part. I mean I can understand not being into The Lord Of The Rings...but not understanding it!? All he had to do to play Gandalf was what he had been doing for most of the 80s and 90s...its a father figure role...its Ramirez in Highlander, William of Baskerville, Indy's Dad, Malone in The Untouchables, Ramius in The Hunt For Red October.
      Ok perhaps he was sick of these kinds of roles...that's fair enough!

    As Mr C was so well known as 007, it is easy to forget just how many movies he actually made. I really like films like The Last Crusade, The Hunt For Red October, Highlander and the Untouchables etc, plus many more. The Rock is daft, but a damn good yarn, and remains a very watchable film to this day, and as for the Man Who would Be King, well that's one of my favorite films of all time. Also, although i know it's widely panned, but i actually quite like The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. Unfortunately, since this video was uploaded, we've lost Sean, and the world will never be the same. RIP

      Neil Connery still lives in Edinburgh. He goes to some of the pubs in Corstorphine - or did when they were open.
      I don't remember much of the old Fountainbridge TBH, because I moved here in the nineties. I think McEwans was still going. I think he'd barely recognise it with all the overpriced flats.

      @ It was better early on I suppose. A mate of mine needed to get a big load of shopping in just before lockdown and the main supermarkets (like Tesco Corstorphine) were getting empty shelves. I got a tip off the Chinese places were well stocked. There is some weird & exotic stuff in there, right enough, but I got flour, and some veg etc out of it. When Tesco/Sainsbury's/Scotmid were out of pasta I just bought tonnes of their noodles. The big supermarkets are back but I don't rec Tesco Cors. just now. Was in a couple of days ago and some guy was wandering around coughing. I'm told the Asda at Chesser got pretty bad at a couple of points but I've not been in there for a year!

    He got old, scripts started to confuse him and he was no longer going to be offered romantic leading roles, because you know, old
    He rejected the role of Morpheous because the concept of the matrix made no sense too him, he said once a long time ago in a hollywood far far away, he retired because he wasn't going to be the romantic lead in movies any more.
    What is tragic.. he made some damn fine movies in the 90s and the league of extraordinary gentlemen ended up being his last movie which was complete and total trash. Finding forrester was one of his last movies and that too me is a far better movie for him to go out on. It is unfortunate.
