Bond at the BFI today

Randomly, saw the character who played Jaws in Moonraker on BBC News today!
At the BFI today, apparently as a combined: celebration of Bond in the past, and a moderate concession for the indefinite suspension of an upcoming Daniel Craig Bond 23 owing to MGM's financial woes...

Read before that the Scott brothers were considering buying it (Ridley Scott and Tony Scott).

Saw on BBC News yesterday, the Bond girl from Man with the Golden Gun.

With respect to both these people: annoyingly self-promoting, over-stating their Bond fame. Jaws was pretty cool, had a Stephen Fry-esque quality about him, and a touch sleezy towards the youthful interviewer just trying to do her job. The latter all botoxed up, recounting stories of her past liaisons (that no one really gives a shite about). Really felt for the presenters who were doing their best to be polite, but you could see that had better things to attend to. They had that typically British 'Fuck off' quality about them that they're suppressing, owing to courtesy and decorum. Quite amusing actually!
