George Lazenby was the second actor to play James Bond. His only film is:
On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969)
He took over for one film from Sean Connery, and never reprised the role. His agent advised him not to do any more Bond films for fear of his being typecast. He never made it big. George Lazenby is the only Australian to play the part. He played opposite Telly Savalas and Diana Rigg of "The Avengers" fame.
This is one of my favorite Bond films, it is the only one in which James is (legally) married. We used the theme song to this film, We Have All the Time in The World by Louis Armstrong, for our first dance at our wedding. Everybody thought it was very silly, but it means a lot to me that my first dance was to the song from the only film in which there is a Mrs. Bond. Also, the song is sweet and sentimental, and Louis Armstrong's last song he ever recorded. He left his hospital bed to sing this song, and died shortly thereafter.
