So How DID George Lazenby Win the Bond Role?

George Lazenby, a guy who watched Dr No and instantly decided he wanted to be James Bond; a guy who spent the next 7 years chasing the dream, only to throw it all away.

But hang on – how, exactly, did a guy with no acting background actually get the biggest movie role on the planet? Lazenby, whose sole movie On Her Majesty’s Secret Service remains a Cult Britannia favourite, revealed the true story for the new 50th anniversary documentary, Everything Or Nothing.

We’ll have a full review of the documentary for you tomorrow…
