James Bond is in a word, timeless. An enduring symbol of effortless cool, irresistible sex appeal, intelligence, style, sophistication and class, it’s not surprising that the actors who’ve played him have had some big (and chic) shoes to fill. But when looking back at our cinematic Bonds ...

All sense of danger and reality became lost via Moore's endless supply of gadgets, his ability to decimate ranks of thugs with a fickle slap of his girly wrist; it's perhaps the call of Moore's callous cartoonishness and not the "real" manly chauvinism of Cold War Bond that PC thuggery answered. Timothy Dalton ushered in the PC Bond era, as Kim Morgan notes, almost apologetic to have to be a swaggering cocksman in the revisionist late ...

... the later 1960s. As such, Connery’s Bond would have no problem navigating his way through one of Hugh Hefner’s hep-cat, Playboy parties mingling with Sammy Davis Jr., Lenny Bruce and of course, bunnies, and a bell-bottomed love-in (though I’m thinking he’d find time to mock the long-haired hippies, while nabbing all of their girlfriends in the process).
