JAMES Bond star Daniel Craig has reportedly been spotted househunting in Beverley.
It is understood Craig is looking for a country retreat with his actress wife Rachel Weisz and has been viewing properties since Christmas.
He has just signed a £31m deal to play 007 in two more films and the Skyfall star is already believed to own luxury homes in London, New York and Follifoot near Knaresborough, North Yorkshire.
Michael Quick from Quick and Clarke estate agents in Beverley's North Bar Within said: "He'd be more than welcome and his wife is very nice as well.
"I've got plenty of houses for him, if I had his number I'd give him a ring.
"I know Beverley is one of the most sought after places in the north. We've got other people in the town in the same business, people like the actor Vincent Regan, who seem to love it."
Beverley is a desirable destination, having just been named in the top 100 places to live in the UK by The Sunday Times. The East Riding county capital came in at number 68.
The town already boasts Hollywood stars in actor Vincent Regan and actress Eleanor Tomlinson.
Regan is best-known for his roles in historical epics 300 and Troy.
He is opening a new theatre in Beverley called 'Ert', or the East Riding Theatre.
Up-and-coming actress Tomlinson, 20, appeared in Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging and stars in the new blockbuster Jack The Giant Killer.
She celebrated landing the plum role by nipping to the town's Tesco supermarket for a bottle of bubbly.• Have you spotted Bond in Beverley? Email j.townend@mailnewsmedia.co.uk
