Wowser. Little known fact that he and Robert Vaughn were the same age when acting in the series.

 

[PimTac]

He came across as a real class act. Enjoyed him from Man From Uncle to NCIS.

RIP, but I gotta say he looked a lot like Stephen Hawking....

 

[Donald]

Also known as Ducky on NCIS.

Illya Kuryakin was the best...

I think the first time I saw him in a movie was when I was a kid, it was the Titanic IIRC. RIP Duck man and thank you for so many years of superb entertainment.

Kids used to say I looked like him. Quite an honor, I might add. My paternal grandparents were from Ukraine, so ya never know...

McCallum was Scottish.

 

[JeffKeryk]

McCallum was Scottish.

Sure, but Illya was Russian or Ukrainian. He is described in the series as holding a master's degree from the Sorbonne and a Ph.D. in Quantum Mechanics from the University of Cambridge.

Sigh .................. between James Bond and Man From U.N.C.L.E, we kids had a blast playing secret agent man.
Play with a plastic gun now a days and see what happens, LOL.
