Sir Sean Connery has been hit with a multi-million pound lawsuit by neighbours who claim he is making their lives a living hell, it emerged today.

The 74-year-old Scot has enraged his exclusive New York neighbours who have accused him of allowing workers to create a deafening noise, fumes, dripping water and an infestation of rats, not to mention loud music allegedly played at all hours.

In a £15.7 million (30million dollars) lawsuit Dr Burton Sultan claims construction work has "wreaked havoc on (his) collection of museum-quality Victorian and early 20th-century wicker furniture ... irreparably damaged by water, falling plaster and black soot and grime".

Sir Sean has lived in the Manhattan apartment, owned by his son Stephane, since April 2001, according to the New York Daily News.

5. Sean. *sigh* STILL one of my favorite actors!

He's being sued because of who he is. I'm sure if that man's furiture was ruined because of Connery he would have made it right. This is all about the big bucks $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.
