That photo sums it up so very well. A great actor that I grew up watching and enjoying so much when I was young. RIP Mr. Connery.

Sad news indeed.

My strong "6538 connection" started the day I was 16.

Godspeed Sir Sean.

So sad… Shared many Bond movies with my Dad who introduced me to the Ian Fleming novels. Sean Connery was definitely the best Bond, IMHO.

I haven’t visited this forum in a long while, but thought I would do so in honor of THE man. In his memory I took out both of my classics. Sorry for the poor pic quality, the file needed to be compressed to meet site guidelines. I also couldn’t find my NATO strap. RIP.

Very saw about this news when it broke yesterday, my favourite JB.

I'm lucky enough to live 600 metres from the original Aston Martin factory, they have their flags at half mast today.

RIP Sean.

Sad to hear the news. He was my favorite Bond and one of my favorite actors in general.
