Daniel Craig Can't Find Love
Britain's biggest stars could all be found on BBC1 last Friday, using comedy sketches and live performances to raise money for the 2007 Comic Relief benefit. But of those who participated, the biggest buzz came from comedian Catherine Tate's contributions.
Taking on such pillars of British society as Tony Blair and Doctor Who, Tate dominated the night -- especially when she met the biggest icon of them all (ie: the one who Americans care about). Playing himself in this short tale of doomed love, Daniel Craig's passion for frumpy Elaine Figgis is totally convincing -- though, perhaps, not as convincing as his passion for brown sauce on ham.
With his confidence, talent, and ability to rock a tux, the new James Bond was already destined to become an international star. But his droll deadpan in this piece makes it clear that Craig is the British George Clooney: so cool he burns hot, and seriously funny.
