DANIEL CRAIG'S PRICKLY PROBLEM

Daniel Craig has suffered another setback filming the new James Bond movie - a nasty case of prickly heat.

The hapless star - who has been lambasted by 007 fans who claim he's the wrong choice to play the suave spy - got sunburned topping up his tan for 'Casino Royale'.

It comes just weeks after Craig lost two teeth shooting a fight scene and confessed to film-makers he didn't know how to drive Bond's classic Aston Martin DB5 car.

An on-set source told Britain's The Sun newspaper: "It's driving him mad. He constantly wants to scratch. It's worst when he does a costume change. He is in agony.

"Daniel has been moaning to his assistants that he's got prickly heat. He is extremely wary of being outside now."

Meanwhile, Craig reportedly stunned the film's crew when he asked them to supply him with an array of pampering products.

A set insider is quoted in Britain's Daily Star newspaper as saying: "He wanted wet wipes, baby lotion and, strangely, two nail files - the sort of item's Goldfinger's aide Pussy Galore might have wanted.

"No one dared ask him why he needs such girlie items - but things could be worse."
