I always thought Lewis Collins was a fantastic actor and a wonderful person. The producers of the bond movies should hang their heads in shame after they never made Mr Collins, James Bond. ‘ Who dares wins’ Was a fantastic film that showcased Lewis Collins off to the world, it’s such a shame his career fizzled out. RIP Lewis
RIP Lewis Collins , a genuine thank you for your Entertainment. Cubby was wrong , you were not to aggressive in your Audition, 1981.....beyond you should have been the new James Bond . ...
I'm a huge cult tv and classic film buff for many years and that theory that some , rather only a few actors have the ''it'' quality is in my opinion so true. Well Lewis had ''it'' in spades .
@@peterfranks6243Following Connery's portrayal, David Niven, George Lazenby, Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig have assumed the role. So I'm assuming that Collins, auditioned for the role, that was eventually filled by Timothy Dalton. Roger Moore's first portrayal, was Live and Let Die in 1973. Personally I think Collins acts badly. Brocolli was right....he was too aggressive.
@@steffanhoffmann8937 Collins auditioned in 82, because Moore's contract expired with Moonraker in 79, so he was lured back for each movie BUT they still auditioned each time.
I thought he was really good in the Professionals series&would have certainly made a Top Notch Bond..But one time i saw him being interviewed with Elaine Page( i think they were doing some kind of Musical together) and the U.S was mentioned &he responded with 'Well 'Americans are weird anyway' 'which was quite a rude &silly throwaway comment...But i was thinking i hope this was after his audition? And if it was,u could understand he might have been irritated and frustrated with not getting the part( quite understandable&i've never been a fan of Mr Craig.Connery,Moore and Pierce Brosnan👍)& DC would have made a good Villain..But as much as Lewis would have done a fine Job,&i got the impression he enjoyed Acting&the action stuff,but not so mucy the silly interviews &perhaps he would let his feelings known a little to obviously!..And ironically where did he end up living!
You could tell Lewis was a kind loving man and respected everyone. So sad when he died...

He was a one off sadly missed so good looking kind and funny .underrated actor who would have been a great bond but was a fantastic bodie .
He was a lovely man on the inside and outside.
He is simply beautiful. Always melts me!
Very handsome r i p to the gorgeous lewis collins 😭😭😭
You could always see the twinkle in his eye, even when he was playing Bodie.
My boyhood hero what a shame taken to early. RIP 3. 7. Always a professional.
Lewis is so right about Liverpool at that time, there was an energy everywhere u went, difficult to explain yet u could feel it all around u
The man who could have been James Bond! 😢
He's got Bond written all over him, Cubby Broccoli you goofed boy
The gent who got the part was the right choice
@@steffanhoffmann8937 who's that ?... the very much over the hill Roger Moore, we're talking about the early eighties when Collins auditioned

He would have been an amazing Bond
Bellísimo hombre , excelente actor un ser humano excepcional,muy carismático,Lo amaré eternamente.Lewis el mejor.Te amo Bodie,te amo Lewis.
My Hero, and Role Model.

He would have been a great james bond!
OO7 for sure !!! 🙂👌👌🙏🙏💯
He played Col Mustard in the game show called Cluedo
Very nice... any information on when this was aired? I would guess early 90's but can't be sure...
Well he was married in 1992 and his second son was Elliot so probably 1994.
What year was this?
Probably 1994 as he was married in 1992 and Elliot was his second son.

Not the greatest actor but ok for some shows.He was good in the Professionals though that was rubbish compared to The Sweeney.
I've always liked Lewis Collins but there is something undeniably creepy about 3:10
Don't be so stupid.
@@WillScarlet1991 Don't be so ignorant.
It's my opinion, deal with it.
@@dcasey77+ And a very stupid opinion it is too.
@@WillScarlet1991 In your opinion... I think we're going to go round in circles on this one.
He's just flirting with her, that's all. Doesn't mean he likes little girls.
Who??????
Seems like an arrogant arse to me.
