What do Lord Lucan, Dick Van Dyke, Peter Purves and Robbie Williams all have in common? Believe it or not, they were all in the frame to play James Bond!

Only six men can lay claim to wearing the famous Savile Row tuxedo of James Bond ; more people have stepped on the Moon. Yet hundreds more came within an inch of winning the coveted 007 role - the pinnacle for so many actors. When Sean Connery announced that the 1967 Bond movie You Only Live Twice would be his last outing as 007, the search for his replacement took producers Cubby Broccoli and Harry Saltzman in some bizarre directions. With preferred options such as Roger Moore committed elsewhere, they decided to cast an unknown. And perhaps the most improbable candidate to be Agent 007 was Lord Lucan , who was to famously disappear from his London home in November 1974 after his children's nanny was found murdered.

After a mass reshuffle that culminated in three presenters' resignation within 14 months, Blue Peter landed Shini Muthukrishnan, a 22-year-old Tik Tok veteran, as the new host. Following the slew of departures, there were doubts that the longest-running children's television show could be cancelled, with insiders branding the program a "very sad, sinking ship" in October. Also, show bosses will be hoping that promoting Shini will bring some peace to the much-loved show on January 19.
Is BBC's Blue Peter about to be axed from our screens? It's 'an awful sinking ship,' according to an insider, as three hosts have only been away in just 14 months

Staff on the much-loved BBC show Blue Peter expressed their dissatisfaction with the possibility that it would be cancelled after three of its presenters resigned in less than a year. The show, which is well-known for its craft projects, makes liberal use of'sticky-back plastic', according to insiders, as a'very sad, sinking ship'. Mwaksy Mudenda, a popular host, left the show at the end of last month, leaving only two presenters to anchor it for the first time since long-serving daredevil host John Noakes joined Valerie Singleton and Peter Purves in 1965. Insiders are also concerned over viewing figures, with insiders concerned that the broadcast of CBBC's digital channel would be blocked. CBBC is struggling to keep up with YouTube Kids and other distractions, such as computer games, is among the concerns.
