hey sent Daniel Craig's career into the stratosphere and set a million women's hearts racing.

Now THOSE blue swimming trunks, which Craig wore during THAT scene in Casino Royale, are set to make hundreds of thousands of pounds for charity in an online auction that starts today.

The shorts are just one of 50 items of James Bond memorabilia to be sold in Christie's charity sale to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the first 007 movie Dr No.
