Following Daniel Craig’s shock announcement that he may only play James Bond for one more outing, there’s already a potential replacement waiting in the wings – and his name is Bond! Duck Bond! Yes, the latest in designer ducks is the famous film spy himself – donning a white tuxedo and sporting slick back hair, the duck is more in the Sean Connery Bond style than that of Daniel Craig or Pierce Brosnan.
