007 himself Daniel Craig has took some Coronation Street inspiration with his latest look, and we’re obsessed. We’re used to see him donning a black suit and chasing around in the criminal underworld, but now fans are a little shaken, not stirred to see him sporting something that wouldn’t go amiss whilst shopping in Bettabuy. The name’s Watts, Curly Watts.

During a shoot for Spanish label Loewe , Daniel, 56, looked strikingly similar to the iconic character, played by actor Kevin Kennedy in the ITV soap for 20 years. Former binman and supermarket manager Curly is a much-missed face on the street, having left in 2003 to join second wife Emma (Angela Lonsdale) on her job transfer to Newcastle. Of course he’s best remembered for being in a turbulent relationship with ditsy barmaid Raquel Wolstenhulme (Sarah Lancashire) .



With wavy curtains, a knitted jumper and some giant glasses (that are also giving Deirdre Barlow vibes), Daniel is worlds away from how we’d normally see him. The unusual styling was instantly picked up on X, with one fan saying: ‘Daniel Craig with some Curley Watts chic.’ Daniel Craig with some Curley Watts chic pic.

Their reunion didn’t last long though – as Rita an.
