Hey, don't be badmouthing the Aussies, maaaaaayyyyyte.

But anyway, that leads to an interesting statistic. Bonds so far
have been:
    - A Scot (Connery)
    - An Aussie (Lazenby)
    - An Englishman (Moore)
    - A Welshman (Dalton)
    - An Irishman (Brosnan)

So maybe they need to choose someone else to continue the trend?
I mean, that's the British Isles pretty much covered, and
Australia, maybe it's time to move further out into the 'colonies'.

Crowe's a New Zealander... but then, Bond is more 'debonair gentleman'
than 'barroom brawling thug', so that might not quite work. Perhaps
a Canadian? Or, indeed, an Indian?
