Sir Roger Moore has passed away at the age of 89 leaving behind a grand body of work including the role of James Bond which he made his own between the years of 1973-85.
The British actor was not only the oldest actor to portray 007, but the longest-running taking over from George Lazenby after On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969).
Moore's Bond was considered extremely different to the one created by author Ian Fleming who was initially brought to life by first Sean Connery in 1962's Dr. No - his debonair, more seasoned take on the character - a witty one-liner never far away from his lips - seen as emblematic of the decade, even if his louche attributes turned some off (by his own admission he was "the fourth best" Bond).
He starred in seven Bond films across his 11-year tenure
