    I was reading an article in British GQ last night and they said that Daniel Craig was a "chavvish" Bond and how this shift in tone was representative of how far Britain had changed since Fleming wrote Casino Royale.

    I took issue with this.

    Ugh.

    My thoughts exactly. From what I've been able to discern about chavs, they wouldn't know what a bottle of Bolinger Grand Anee' was.

    well yeah they would, it's what their favourite thug rappah be drinkin, yo

    Ah, to think that only a few years ago, Crystal was the pimp's libation of choice.

    How times change.

    Or a tie. Or a dinner jacket.

    The new Bond isn't the public school posh type that Connery might have been, but chavvish? Fuck you, British GQ. Then there was some extended metaphor about how Bond was like Legos. What a bad article.

    No but he really plays the part, and it's certainly worked for him!

    That's a shame PI, but now I remember why I don't buy GQ anymore.
