DANIEL Craig has paid tribute to "incomparable" Queen Elizabeth II following her death aged 96. The Queen stole the show in the 2012 Olympic opening ceremony, where Daniel — as James Bond — was seen arriving at Buckingham Palace to escort the monarch into a chopper.
Her Majesty died peacefully at the age of 96 yesterday, with her family by her side. In a heartwarming statement to the PA news agency, Daniel said he was "saddened" by the news as he paid tribute to the Queen.
The actor said: "I, like so many, was deeply saddened by the news today and my thoughts are with the royal family, those she loved and all those who loved her." Daniel added: "She leaves an incomparable legacy and will be profoundly missed."
