    Well, David Niven and Barry Nelson Both played Bond originally (before Connery) in Casino Royal. So Moore is the third Bond to die. (I know, I know, they don't count that movie as canon..).

    Moore was my first Bond. I remember seeing Moonraker at the theater. But For Your Eyes Only was my favorite as a kid. Melina Havalock had quite the effect on 11 year old me... sigh....

    His guest appearance on the original "Muppet Show" was great fun.

    Never took himself too seriously, and clearly enjoyed himself.

    Brother from a different mother. To this day, she's the only reason I sort of want a crossbow.

    RIP- 'tis a bit sobering when our childhood hero's pass on. Growing up is marvelous but sucks....

    Thanks for the "clip of the night" as far as I'm concerned. I watched n loved ever minute, makes me wish I'd met him, seems to have a good sense of humor.

    Actually, the "Casino Royale" with David Niven came out in '67. This was the same year Connery's fifth movie as 007 ("You Only Live Twice") came out.

    Crap... my bad... as cheesy as it looked, I simply assumed it was older. I forget "psychedelic" was a late 60s thing.

    I went to highschool with a gal who looked exactly like her. Sadly, my low Charisma stats let me down.
