Less corona more glamour...

Famous Shipbrokers??


Roger Moore was my favourite....I know that is controversial 



Ok I need this verified - one part at least...

It has been rumoured (and mentioned more recently) that the inspiration for the James Bond character   was infact an ex Clarkson's employee - a gent by the name of Sandy Glen...

Sure he was part owner of Clarkson's 'holiday' division (geez they should bring that back post pandemic) but lets not the truth get in the way of a good story. And his father Pop Glen was a shipowner...so kudos there.

Now the other one is Jason Bourne. And this is where I need your help. I swear that when watching one of the Bourne series I remember his character saying something in a conversation that went some like this

Hot woman: "When you meet my mother be careful what you say". "What job should I say you do?"
JB: After 5 seconds of pondering says "tell her I'm a shipbroker'.

Now is this true or have I completely made that up. I've been running with this story (to friends and family) for a very long time so I hope I'm right..

Who can provide evidence? A clip would be perfect....
