hey have you seen the new james bond? new 007 is blond and blue eyes,
English actor Daniel Craig has been named as the next James Bond.
The announcement ends months of speculation over who would take over from Pierce Brosnan on Her Majesty's secret service.
In typically flamboyant 007 style, 37-year-old Craig swept up the River Thames on a power launch to a news conference, escorted by Royal Marines boats.
The first blond Bond, wearing a blue suit and red tie, posed for photos in the shadow of Tower Bridge and told reporters, "I'm kind of speechless at the moment".
The casting of one of cinema's most iconic characters closes the successful four-film run of Irishman Brosnan.
He seemed shaken at not having been retained for Casino Royale, the 21st Bond film that starts shooting in January.
