SO LONG, NEIL CONNERY...

You sported the same suave charm as your brother, Sean, and would have made a great, replacement Bond, but then in a way, you managed that all the same.

Operation Kid Brother (aka, O.K. Bond) is one of my all-time favorites, a flip side to the 007 entries that is as official as it gets when it comes to classy knockoffs.

Mad Mission 3: Our Man from Bond Street is another fun case in point, and much respect can be given to your appearances in Wild Boy, the Body Stealers and the acclaimed miniseries, the Borgias

You were one cool cat, Mr. Connery, who carried on the tradition of virility in a manner that was contagious. There's definitely a little bit of you in me, or so I'd like to think. That's the way heroes operate. They set the gold standard, and you certainly achieved that in royal spades.
