She may be playing the real-life Moneypenny in Sky Atlantic's Fleming, but actor Anna Chancellor has revealed she doesn't even like James Bond. The Sun reports that the The Hour and Four Weddings and a Funeral actor said: "I can't say I've seen all the films. I have no interest in them." She added: "It'a a boy's fantasy. I'm bored by Sean Connery. He doesn't do it for me." However, she said of the Sky drama: "I like the drama itself. Ian Fleming's interesting, the era's interesting." Monkey hopes she's not bored by costume drama: she is joining the cast of ITV's Downton Abbey for its upcoming fifth season.
