American? Hugh Jackman is Australian, although he considers himself British.....

Hugh Jackman is a very decent bloke and seems to be one of Hollywood's good guys but he's not a Bond.

I hope it's more of an unknown.
I hate the Idris Elba talk focusing on him being black. I think he'd be a good Bond irrespective of what colour he is.....but then I think he's a bit too well known.

Same same.
So I've been told when I tried to argue that discriminating against a nationality wasn't racist because nationality isn't the same as race. Apparently the official definition of racism as per the UN or whoever it was includes discrimination against nationality and religion and anything else you want to throw in.

Re: The cruelly short-lived James Bond channel on OSN
The Bond exhibition, which is in Dubai Mall, by the At The Top bit, was supposed to end shortly but has been extended. It's not bad but book tickets ahead or the cost is silly.
I went on a weekday morning with in-laws and it was almost empty. Lots of outfits and props and we quite enjoyed it. A pleasant wander for an hour or so. You'll just have to watch a Bond film that evening though!
Quintessential Bond film for me is Goldfinger and Pussy Galore is my favourite Bond girl, although I wanted really to be Solitaire after I saw Live and Let Die.

Live and Let Die was the first bond film I ever saw, a few years after it came out, and I was eight years old. She looked ever so glamorous at the time.
