This one made me feel old! When we were in grade school, everyone (boys too!) thought he was so cool as Illya Kuryakin. (My older neighbor Mark had his poster up for years.) I loved him on NCIS as the still cool coroner. :rose:. RIP, David.

I can still remember the tune from Colditz! Robert Wagner was in it too! Here's the theme tune:

Lot 3259 - A Lonestar The Man from UNCLE attaché case

 

Christmas 1965 (or thereabouts!) I got this from Santa! 

The Man From Uncle was huge at the time  and I thought I was super cool as an Uncle agent! This would have been my first memories of David McCallum.

He has had a long and wonderfully varied career both in cinema and on TV.

My missus is a big fan of NCIS and loved his "Ducky" character.

 

RIP David.

That's really awesome!  In my neighborhood we made our own triangle badges. :biggrin:

Solo:  Illya, are you free?

 

Kuryakin:  No man is free who works for a living....but I'm available.

I loved The Man from U.N.C.L.E when I was a kid. Sapphire and Steel was good too.

 

S&S was an amazing show...Tomorrow People, Dr Who and S&S I watched religiously as a kid :rose:
