Speaking on Virgin Radio's Christian O'Connell Breakfast Show this week, Craig spoke of the time when Casion Royale producer Barbara Broccoli first contacted him about playing the spy: "I hadn’t many ambitions to do this but Barbara gave me a call and said, 'Please come and say hello'. I thought this [would be a] bit of a giggle."
Craig added that he was not initially overwhelmed by Ian Fleming's novel: "I remember I got a copy of the book and I was reading on the tube. I got off the tube at Piccadilly, finished the last page, threw it in the bin and went - 'Well that was alright'."
