Best answer - James Bond 007 the ultra epitome of bad ass cool

Really?

Only 2 James Bonds fo date have been English.

1 : Sean Connery - from Scotland
2 : George Lazenby - Australia
3 : Roger Moore - England
4 : Timothy Dalton - Wales
5 : Piers Brosnan - Ireland
6 : Daniel Craig - England

First off, only Sean Connery counts.

The fact that he's from Scotland is immaterial.

The man who gave us James Bond was English:

James Bond was created by novelist Ian Fleming, born in London.



The real James Bond: Sean Connery starring in the first James Bond film, Dr. No (1962).

……… don't forget Honor … everyboy was scramblin' to meet her …….. Pussy Galore

Love the names they gave to the Bond women.

How about Plenty O'Toole in Diamonds Are Forever...



Lana Wood as Plenty O'Toole in Diamonds Are Forever (1971).

James Bond, as stonehearted pointed out, is English. period.

period.

Peter Sellers
Dusty Springfield
Ford Maddox Ford
Lord Byron
The Magna Carta
The English language

But no-one said anything about those actors being English
We said James Bond is English and he is

Lots of us get confused too, as discussed here

Never mind, time for a nice cup of tea

All this talk about English vs British. I bet the oil and gas income from the north do come in handy. Still, nothing wrong about being a patriot, as long as it does not go to your head.


Roy Williams in Stoke-on-Trent has covered his house in over 40 England flags in preparation for the World Cup.

Pearly Queens ……

Were they selling lots of sequined suits?

As a born and bred Londoner of Irish descent, I could hold forth at length on much both good and ill which has eminated from this small country. I shall limit myself to recommending highly the works of both Charles Dickens and The Stone Roses.

I wonder what Roy Williams has to say about seeing one band hundreds of times?
Just a friendly joke bv!

I'll go with that also...all the way from Durham, and where my surname originates
And even though they account for just a third of my ancestry (along with Scottish and Dutch), they were the first to arrive here - many thanks!

Also, thanks to Doc Martens and Barbour jackets.
