So it's been confirmed that Ben Whishaw is the new Q.

So is this another sign that the producers are slowly but surely re-introducing elements back into Bond that were removed for the reboot.
I love both old-Bond and new-Bond so i'll happily say that this confirmation of Q returning is good news and i'm hoping they manage to get the balance of old/new elements right.
As for Ben himself, i think i've only seen him in the BBC crime thriller 5 Days which was on a few years ago where he played a young lad accused of murdering a girl he gave a lift too. He seemed ok in that so all i can say is good luck to him.
I'm not one for knocking something before the actual event so i shall await the finished product before commenting or criticising him.
