Tom Baker (who I'd love to see as a Bond villain) once said that Neill "could bore for England". I tend to agree, he doesn't have the charisma. Too vanilla for Bond.

He was considered for the role in TLD and GE.

I know. But I'm glad he didn't get it.

I watched the clip from his screentest on TLD Ultimate Edition extras. He would have been ok but I think Timothy Dalton was a better choice. From what I've read everybody at Eon wanted to cast Neil except Cubby.

Tim has better looks than Sam.
