Daniel Craig has been voted the world's sexiest man. The British actor topped the poll, conducted by condom maker Durex, after showing off his toned muscles in his first outing as James Bond in hit 007 adventure Casino Royale.

The combination of Daniel's piercing blue eyes and rippling physique as he emerges from the sea in tiny blue swimming trunks in the movie proved to be a major vote winner.

A Durex spokesman said: "Daniel Craig is an obvious choice. He has all the attributes that make a real icon."

The survey - which polled 4,000 women - saw British men outnumbering US stars eight-to-two in the top ten. Sin City actor Clive Owen finished as runner-up, while The Holiday star Jude Law came third.

Others to make it into the top 100 included screen icon Robert Redford and music mogul Simon Cowell.
