Sean Connery died in his sleep while in the Bahamas. (Vale: Sean Connery | TV Tonight) He was James Bond in Dr. No, From Russia With Love, Goldfinger, Thunderball, You Only Live Twice, Diamonds Are Forever and Never Say Never Again (I have never seen James Bond in case you are wondering). I think he is the second James Bond to die after Roger Moore a couple of years ago.
