'Skyfall' Scottish castle sequence rumoured to be shot in Wales

Skyfall - 12-12-11
The Scotsman recounts the story behind James Bond 23 selecting Duntrune Castle, in Kilmartin, Argyll and Bute as a shooting location, and goes on to report that the "Skyfall" production team are now eyeing locales in neighbouring Wales.

According to Duntrune resident Robin Malcolm, �They were looking at other venues, and I think they�re going to fake it that the Welsh castle is going to be in Scotland."

�The last thing I heard was that they were going to have some shots of somewhere like Rannoch Moor that�s pretty desolate and a few mountains � which Wales can come up with too."

The location 007 director Sam Mendes is looking for is clearly a generic misty moor, rather than an ancestral home for James Bond, as some speculated.
