I was thinking would anyone know what hobbies and interests the Bond actors have ?
Indeed what hobbies any actors in the Bond films might have.
I know ( like every body ) that Connery loves golf
Dalton is a fisherman
and Craig is into photography.
So I was curious if Any of us may share an interest ? :))

Just remembered that Moore likes to play backgammon :D

    Dalton - the weak and weepy Bond!

    Craig is a Liverpool fan and Dalton supports Man City - both attend matches when they can.

    DC is also a renowned rugby fan and managed to meet the British & Irish Lions team after their series win over Australia last year. Imagine winning a major sporting event and then 007 turns up.

    Brosnan is a passionate environmentalist (including nuclear disarmament and whale conservation) and representative for UNICEF for Ireland.

    He is also passionate about cancer awareness.

    I think many of the Bond's have done much for charities over the years. {[]

    Back in the day, Moore was always seen skiing with the Jet Set in the Swiss Alps

    Brosnan lives part of the time on Kauai, and pops up in Hawaii publications periodically talking about his hobbies. He's into stand-up paddling (SUPs) and kickboxing. He is also a rather decent artist.

    Funny... though Brosnan if far from my favorite Bond, he's probably the Bond actor I would most enjoy hanging out with as our interests overlap. We could talk about art, kickboxing, animal and environmental issues, and life in Hawaii (I live on Oahu).

    I've heard that stand up paddling is very tough.

    It is tough indeed. I've only tried it once. A friend of mine who is a top-notch surfer took me out on one. I don't think I was able to stand up for more than a minute at a time. I would try it again, though. It's one heck of a core and shoulder workout.

    PB looks way better on his SUP then I did!

    Hello Lady Rose, to spin your idea a bit, what kind of athlete, recreational player is Bond in the pictures??

    He plays golf, snowskis, snorkels, waterskis, races speedboats and sports cars, seems to have rock climbing ability. One could say he has obstacle course training escaping various villain traps in challenging locations, can fly planes, knows some level of acrobatics and gymnastics--swinging on ropes, up and down buildings--also martial arts, seems like he goes for solo individual sports and is super skilled in all of them. Wide World of Sports of secret agents. No team sports like rugby, soccer, for our 007, probably uncomfortable for his loner side. Interesting idea.

    Felix the Leiter Cat, thanks, regards.

    Dalton likes fishing. Now a fishing series with Tim would be awesome.

    Im not sure if it really falls under their general interests, but Connery and Craig are the only Bond actors with tattoos. Connery has 2 on his forearm and Craig has 4 (had one on his lower stomach removed).

    Don't tell the Bride. A groom to be had his Girlfriend's name tattooed on his left
    Testicle ! Now that's Love :))

    You watch a show called "Don't Tell the Bride"??? Do you watch it at the insistence of your spouse? Because if so, then that's love! :))

    I understand completely, my friend. I have become quite a connoisseur of Disney Channel fare such as "Good Luck Charlie" and "Austin and Ally" (The missus and I are raising two young granddaughters at our home). :)
