Did You See That

Casino Royale star Daniel Craig appeared on the Jonathan Ross chat show last nite (BBC1). Craig has revitalised the Bond franchise and Jonathan Ross is movie buff, and presenter of BBC’s “Film” programme, so it should have been a fascinating conversation - except it would have been if Daniel Craig had anything to say… at all. What a let down - the guy was virtually monosyllabic.

Thanks to Jonathan Ross, there’s always a few funny moments though. On talking abot green screen acting, Craig said it was hard to talk to an empty space. “Are you talking about me?” asked Jonathan… “at least I’m keeping my end of the conversation up!”

I wonder if he’s just painfully shy, or maybe objected to the ribbing he got (Ross labelled his face “craggy”) or didn’t care for being the object of Russell Brand’s desires. It’s a shame because he’s clearly a great actor… so maybe he should have tried to act like an entertaining chat show guest?
