I'll be taking a break from Star Wars to listen to Moonraker and For Your Eyes Only today.

Oh No this is so sad. Roger was a gentleman and a great raconteur. R.I.P. you will live on forever in the great volume of your work.

I've seen you walk the screen, it's you that I adore
Since I was a boy I wanted to be like Roger Moore
A girl in every port, and gadgets up my sleeve
The world is not enough for the both of us it seems
So I wish I was James Bond
Just for the day
Kissing all the girls, blow the bad guys away
And I wish I was James Bond
Just for the day
Kissing all the girls, blow the bad guys away
Hello Mr Bond, I've been expecting you
Martini in your hand, and that eyebrow that you move
Don't take this the wrong way, I know it might sound odd
I'm the next double-0, I'm the right man for the job
So I wish I was James Bond
Just for the day
Kissing all the girls, blow the bad guys away
And I wish I was James Bond
Just for the day

What an absolute gentleman.

Worked with him on A View To A Kill, Shout At The Devil, Octopussy and The Wild Geese. Then a few years ago I was with him for a book tour he did for a James Bond book, he always had time for fans & was so gracious all the time, would stop for pictures with people, you name it he was there for the fans 100%.

When I worked with him, he was so polite & so grateful for anything that was done for him, everything began with a "please" & finished with a "thank you" & had a wonderful sense of humour.

Sadly we all pass, but when they are so genuinely nice, it somehow seems sadder. I am sure like every human he had some off days, but I never once saw it & in fact the opposite, watched him go out of his way to cheer up others!

Amazing person who took fame as a gift and not for granted.

RIP Sir Roger you gave us hours of entertainment.

regards

That's lovely, you were truly blessed to be associated with such a wonderful human being, and he will forever remain a true Saint.

The Man Who Haunted Himself (1970) - Michael J Lewis, for me.

Octopussy and For Your Eyes Only are among my favourite 007 films.

He also supported the kikstarter Moonraker soundtrack campaign.

Very sad with this news.

That's wonderful to hear. I didn't know that. Roger Moore has always been a class act and a wonderful advocate for the James Bond franchise. There's not a moment onscreen that he didn't appear to be thoroughly enjoying himself as Bond or fully committed to the role.

'Goodnight Goodnight, sleep well tonight...'

I'm going to have to watch 'The Spy Who Loved Me' tonight. My first Bond, and hence my first Moore.

One of a kind. You will be remembered, Sir.

He is absolutely; without question - my favourite James Bond actor.
The very first James Bond film I ever saw was The Man With Golden Gun - (that being my favourite 007 film, but Moonraker comes in very close at second place).
A true gentleman, and he will be very sorely missed!
Rest In Peace -

Roger Moore was for more The Saint than James Bond... but I really love Moonraker.

A great man is gone... RIP

God Bless Saint Sir JAMES BOND!
In remembrance to this fine actor I saw THE SPY WHO LOVED ME & MOONRAKER last night
with Sir Roger Moore's commentary! Treasured memories of meeting him at his Life & Book tour
& got plenty of autographs. He leaves us with an impressive resume of tv/film!

NOBODY DID IT BETTER! RIP
