The following day, Craig was snapped wearing make-up that indicates 007 has been on the rough end of an action sequence. The outfit is identical to the earlier shots, indicating this scene follows on from the city filming. Bond gets behind the wheel of a red truck, which appears to have taken almost as much of a beating as 007.
