...the other error is Leonard stated Roger has made the most James Bond movies of any of the actors to play the role. This is simply incorrect. He made 7. Sean Connery made 7 as well. Again, I don't understand how you can get simple stats like this wrong? Even without the internet. Otherwise, love the show. Always an education.

I listened to the show and am a regular listener. Leonard said Roger played 007 for nearly 10 years, when in fact he was on the screen as Bond from 1973-1985. I don't understand how mistakes like this continue to be made in the age of the internet. There's just no excuse anymore. Otherwise, I loved the show.

Sir Roger Moore, please also note that David Niven also played James Bond in the Original Casino Royal.

Great Interview, Thanks

Thank you for all the characters you have created over your long career. They have contributed to our world culture; something that few humans can say and that no one can ever take away from you (critics included!).
