“Schmaltzy, Not Stirred”

James Bond Daniel Craig caused quit the stir at the recent Baftas, with many observers perplexed over his appearance, which was described as “waxy” and “older.”

0-0-ver tired? James Bond star Daniel Craig, 49, leaves fans baffled with shockingly ‘waxy’ and ‘older’ appearance at BAFTAs 2018

He is best known for his hunky role as the nation’s favourite spy James Bond.

But Daniel Craig, 49, sent his fans into a frenzy with his unrecognisable looks at the 71st British Academy Film Awards, at Royal Albert Hall, London on Sunday.

Social media was awash with eagle-eyed fans scathing comments that the English actor looked ‘plastic’ and ‘older’ for his red carpet appearance.

It turns out it is less a matter of “0-0-ver tired?” and more a matter of 0-0-vey, too much fatty Jewish food!”

So now we know who is responsible for Daniel Craig’s fuller face, which premiered at the Baftas.

Blame it on his wife Rachel Weisz, 47, who introduced the 007 actor to Jewish eaterie Harry Morgan in St John’s Wood, London, where the pair gorge on highly calorific fare.

A fellow diner tells me: ‘Daniel joked with me that the hardest thing about playing Bond isn’t the stunts or nookie scenes, it’s the fact he has to largely stick to a boring diet of health food.

‘But he must have a gap in his diary at the moment as he’s just mad for Jewish food. Daniel asked for all the trimmings with his salt beef sandwich including sauerkraut and latkes [fried potato cakes].’

I am sure Roger Moore would have approved. George Lazenby, not so much.
