This past Tuesday, October 18, was a big day for 007 actor Daniel Craig – he was made a companion of The Order of St Michael and St George by the Princess Royal at Windsor Castle.
This is the same honor held by the character James Bond - the royal nod was in recognition of his outstanding contribution to film and theatre.
We’ve been expecting you…
