From "The Bowler and the Bunnet", a 47 minute TV documentary. I couldn't find the movie online unfortunately.

A 'bunnet' is apparently a cloth cap worn by workers in Scotland. Never knew that!

I’ll do it for only 10% Martin. Lunch, dinner and drinks for a week sounds reasonably good to me. When shall I come?

One of the worlds highest paid film stars and he drives a scruffy, old 356 :(
This is said to be 1964 at his flat in nth west London.
His 356 is now listed as white and had amaxingly survived !!

Just watched " You Only Live Twice" and whatever Connery had, he had it Big time, the guy just oozes charisma and presence.
