Editor's Take:
Sean Connery created the screen version of James Bond that every successor has been measured against. He combined charm, menace and humour in a way that turned Bond into a global phenomenon. He later proved his range in films such as The Name of the Rose and The Untouchables, which won him an Oscar. A proud Scot, he was a long-time supporter of Scottish independence. He was knighted in 2000.
