There is little doubt that Lazenby had succcumbed to his manager Ronan O'Rahilly

5) I've read a nasty letter from Diana Rigg which--if authentic--might have helped to sink George in his future endeavours. Reportedly, it was read round the world, portraying Laz as a vile prima donna, impossible to work with. (DNS: your take on this?)


Just last night I was sitting in the pub with a mate who, while not into Bond, did know someone who been on OHMSS and had found Lazenby unpleasant to work with. I've no idea how much of that was down to the pressure George was under, or if he's changed since. Either way it doesn't impact on my enjoyment of the movie or his performance in it.
