Jack Lowden might want to brush up on his cycling before any 007 audition.

The "Slow Horses" actor was caught on video going over on a bike while running through a scene for the spy series on a London street.

In the footage Lowden wobbles before losing control and dropping to the ground. He appeared to shake it off.

Leave it to the pros

A stunt double was later brought in for the rougher part of the sequence. In that bit Lowden's character River Cartwright slams into a taxi.

In the 007 conversation

The stumble comes as Lowden's name keeps popping up in talk about who will become the next James Bond.

He is said to be in the mix alongside Robert Pattinson, Josh O'Connor plus Callum Turner. A wobbly bike ride is probably not the screen test he had in mind.
