Watch: James Bond Escorts the Queen to the 2012 Olympics Opening Ceremony and New SKYFALL Spot

Well, if you happened to miss it the BBC have literally shared the clip on You Tube in which James Bond (Daniel Craig) escorted Her Majesty the Queen (Queen Elizabeth) to the opening ceremony of the 2012 Olympics in London.

Making a cameo appearance together in a short film beamed to 60,000 cheering spectators in the main stadium and a billion more viewers around the world, Craig escorted Her Majesty safely to the games.

Danny Boyle, the director of Slumdog Millionaire, was hired to direct Craig in a short where the world’s most famous agent ‘gets a special assignment to kick-off the activities’.

We get a little bit of humor and, thanks to our director and star, the kind of class before we get the 23rd feature installment this fall.
