    Stanley Morgan plays the Casino Concierge.

    Also starring Sean Connery, Ursula Andress, Joseph Wiseman, Jack Lord & Bernard Lee

    Near the beginning in the Casino (Les Ambassadeurs, London) The man from MI6 or whatever arrives to tell James Bond that nasty things have happened in Jamaica. The Agent chap tells Stan that he needs Bond in a hurry, so off he goes to deliver this very important message to our Sean." As Stan himself always liked to point out -

    "Has it occurred to anyone that if I had decided to ignore the MI6 guy, told him to get lost because I was too busy, or failed to find Bond in the casino, that there would not have been a James Bond series!!! The film would have ended right there! No sequels. No work for Sean, Roger Moore et al! Countless jobs and hundreds of millions of pounds, dollars, yen lost. So let's have less of this 'small speaking part', huh? The role was pivotal!"

    On October 21st 2012, Stanley Morgan joined a host of other Bond stars at Pinewood Studios for a celebration of James Bond's 50th anniversary! See some pictures of the event here

    Curiously a common promo still exists from the famous scene, where Stan appears behind 007 and awaits a moment to interrupt the game. Except it's not Stan! They must have done these shots on a separate occasion, reproducing the scene but without bothering to rehire all the original extras. In fact this particular scene in the film looks totally different as Stan's head is hidden behind the lampshade! So beware of imitators! Stan was often asked to sign a copy of this promo still (much to his amusement!)

    Not Stan!
