Yes,heres an idea."Bond stars",the nationwide search for the next 007.Think about it.He s gotta be out there somewhere.A panel consisting of Stella Rimington,David Shayler,that Simon bloke cos he s funny,and an SAS fitness instructor could put 1,000 men through their paces looking at such abilities as seduction,handling a PPK,diving through windows and knowing their Bollinger from their Dom Perrignon.The whole thing sponsored by Ford,owners of Aston Martin.Let me know what you think.

I like the idea. As long as it doesn't mean that the winner becomes Bond. Cause Popstars have frankly been bad on both accounts in Australia, and I wouldnt'; want a bad Bond!

Broccoli (checking out the big Aussie bloke in the next chair):Hmm... he doesn't wince when the barber pulls his hair...he maintains a steely gaze while his fringe is cut...wow he responds with a raised eyebrow and an ironic half smile when the barber cracks a lame joke...that's the NEXT JAMES BOND!
