I didn't know that he joined the RN as a boy - got invalided out but still made it to Commander Bond.

' ... Three years later, he was invalided out of the service with stomach ulcers. His arms by now had tattoos which proclaimed his passions: "Scotland forever" and "Mum & Dad". '

It’s been a long journey since this photo.

That's both James Bond and Emma Peel in the same year.
With 2 months left to go, what else will 2020 do to us ?

We can also point out that he has played in 7 James Bond films.

As long as the part required a Scottish accent, Sean was your man.

Sadly, Blofeld finally got his wish.

He is an icon, so many great films and characters.
But to be honest, if reports are to believed, I'm a bit envious that he got an easy way out by dying while asleep, at the age of 90 that is a privilege.

Yes it is perhaps the best situation.

Although we don't know what is going on in the brain and in the body during the sleep at this time.
