Geoffrey Palmer, Admiral Roebuck in `Tomorrow Never Dies`, receives OBE in Queen`s New Year honours list

Geoffrey Palmer, who played Admiral Roebuck in the 1997 James Bond film "Tomorrow Never Dies" has been awarded an OBE (Order of the British Empire) in the Queen's New Year honours list.

Before sparring with Judi Dench as M on the set of "Tomorrow Never Dies", the pair played a couple in the popular and long running sitcom "As Time Goes By".

Roebuck: "With all due respect, M, sometimes I don't think you have the balls for this job."
M: "Perhaps. But the advantage is that I don't have to think with them all the time."

Thanks to `Ken` for the alert.
