Sean Connery has died, aged 90.

One of the great screen presences. Has been a star for near on 60 years.

Sean Connery: James Bond actor dies aged 90

He was the first to bring James Bond to the big screen and played the role seven times.

Yes, another movie icon form the past has gone. Sean Connery made seven Bond films and he will forever be James Bond in most of our minds. The white tux, the intro, 'Bond, James Bond' and the line 'shaken not stirred' will forever be in our mind when James Bond is mentioned.

Sean Connery had a dark side to his life but the man is dead so perhaps it best to remember the good bits.

Time to rewatch Zardoz, just to see if it is as weird as I remember it

RIP

Vale Mr Connery. Will always be the best James Bond for me.

Had a great career post Bond, but his role as the hard nosed Irish-American cop in the Untouchables becoming Elliot Ness' right hand man, was his greatest role in my eyes. Thought he was the real star of the movie and there were plenty of big name actors in the movie.
