Stanley Baker Facts
He was offered the role of James Bond in Dr. No (1962), but turned it down because he was unwilling to commit to a three-picture contract. Baker may have regretted this decision, since a few years later he asked producer Albert R. Broccoli about the possibility of playing a villain in a Bond movie.

In May 1972 he was one of the co-organisers of the Great Western Bardney Pop Festival in Lincoln.

Although born in Wales, Baker spent most of his formative years in England since his parents moved to London in the mid-1930s.
