Producers of the new James Bond movie, Casino Royale, were forced to hire a personal trainer for star Daniel Craig after he became obsessed with dumplings while filming in the Czech Republic.

Craig sported a muscular physique when he was photographed earlier this year in a bathing suit on location in the Bahamas. But since the production moved to Prague, the actor has reportedly piled on the pounds after becoming enamoured with the local cuisine, particularly dumplings and borscht.

Producer Barbara Broccoli was so alarmed by the star's weight gain she immediately hired a personal trainer. Film sources maintain the superspy is now back in peak condition.

Seeing as he already had a personal trainer - and does training every evening anyway to keep fit - this story is very hard to believe - just check the source paper

Why would you post this asinine story if you don't believe it? "Obsessed with dumplings"? Give me a [censored]ing break!

Like JCRendle said, this story is very hard to believe.

Sounds like a load of old rubbish made up by some local hack. Just look at the great photos from the shooting in the Czech Republic!

Uh, you admit that tabloid stories aren't trustworthy, but you post it anyway (without any context or attribution) and then defend it? Sorry, but where's the sense in that? What is the point of this thread? This story is absolute BS. It's not the first of its kind, nor is it likely to be the last. You might have posted it at the "UK Sunday Newspapers bashing Daniel Craig again" thread, but instead you've posted it in its own thread with a title to suggest that it's a true story.

Why would he suddenly become obsessed with dumplings while shoot in the Czech Republic? Who the hell writes this stuff?

How about naming the source so we can all laugh at them?

I've seen this report a dozen times. It's complete :tup:. By Craig's own admission he works out every day anyway even with filming.
