Actually he's a competent actor who's appeared in several BBC dramas.

Very English and debonaire in his diction, dress, etc.

I'm in agreement.
The Bond personna has always worked on the combination of suaveness combined with

This fellow will work out fine for the usual lifetime of an actor filling the
Bond role. (i.e., much longer than for George Lazenby!)

My only fear is that this will open the door for a "Jane Bond"...

I agree. Who said Bond has to be a white guy?
