    True, the leading ladies would need to be much older ;)

    Why don't we have some older actresses as villains any more. They seem to dry up in the sixties...

    To be blunt, it's because within the industry actresses over 35 get forgotten about, until they are post 65, and can start playing older authority / matriarch characters. BBC's Poldark, and ITV's Mr Selfridge are good example. It's a serious problem at present.

    I don't normally fly the union flag, but here is Equity's page on the issue...

    And yet they wern't in the sixties. I suppose its the same in the theatre - how many times can you be cast as Hamlets mother...

    This industry is the only one that really makes up its own rules as it goes along, and most are outdated, if not archaic compared to other industries. I'll leave it there as it's an annoying and very old argument.

    Re Bond - Spectre is not out yet, and The House Of Eon has not spoken on what (or who) is next. Until test changes, Daniel Craig Is STILL James Bond!!

    (Due respect to Sir Sean, Mr Lazenby, Sir Roger, Mr Dalton and Mr Brosnan!)
