ITV trying desperately to fill its schedules with more awards-based crap. What a load of old rubbish.

Is there really any need for even more silly awards? And looking at the nominations, it's hardly like they've picked the cream of the crop.

Agreed. Hardly the best selection of nominees there. If Depp or Craig don't win then that would make these awards even more of a farce.

Seems like it will likely be all Casino Royale or Pirates winners for this one.

I don't know. Given it's (primarily) the British public voting, I wouldn't rule out Harry Potter sweeping the awards, particularly being so fresh in everyone's minds following the release of the new book and film.

(Oh, and I do agree that this is another rather pointless ITV production, but it is a touch refreshing to see a more mainstream and popular selection of nominations than the increasingly tiresome and predictable pictures Oscar gives the nod to.)

Another awards event and another win for Casino Royale... shouldn't be too surprising at this point. :cooltongue:

Potter needs to be crushed though. :angry:

My god - Roger Moore is probably the greatest gentleman I've ever seen.

"I've seen Craig, yes. I had to buy a DVD, without a discount. And, he was terrific."

It's done pretty nicely so far when it comes to an array of different awards.

I feel so happy for the Bond franchise :angry:. Its about time it was given a lifetime achievment award. Shame Craig wasn't there! Didn't BBC News say that he attended :lol:???

When Michael Wilson said:
"I have My ideal Bond Girl.... Dame Judi Dench!"
I had the sudden feeling that Eon will not let Dame Judi go, so expect her to be there untill she pops her clogs :cooltongue:.

Great to see the Bond franchise honoured in this way.
