Roger Moore – aka Simon Templar, Lord Brett Sinclair and James Bond 007 – has died aged 89.
“With the heaviest of hearts, we must share the awful news that our father, Sir Roger Moore, passed away today. We are all devastated.” was the announcement on twitter.
Moore was born in 1927, and shot to fame on the TV series Ivanhoe and Maverick before being cast as “the famous Simon Templar” in the long running ITV adaptation of Leslie Charteris’ The Saint. He went from there to The Persuaders, opposite Tony Curtis, and then to a twelve-year stint as James Bond.
