St Andrews would be a “fitting” place to scatter Sir Sean Connery’s ashes, his son has said.
The original James Bond died in his sleep in the Bahamas in October, aged 90.
His widow Micheline Roquebrune has previously said the family plan to scatter his ashes on a Scots golf course but did not reveal which one.
Now son Jason has said St Andrews, where his father was a member of the Royal and Ancient Golf Club, would be “very fitting”.
Jason, who was this week named patron of the Scottish Youth Film Foundation, said: “He was a member of the R&A so I think probably that might be the place.”
The 58-year-old actor and director said the family had “fantastic times” in the town, adding: “He used to go up there and play in various tournaments – he had great memories.”
He also spoke about the reaction since the death of Sean, who went to school in Edinburgh and was a milkman in the first of a variety of jobs before starting his acting career.
He said: “My father was my dad but to many people he was this big superstar.
“So many people have stories of things he did that I never knew about – and those were really moving to me.
“He went to school with about five million people and he delivered milk to at least five million people.”
