Best of James Bond's Roger Moore on Dick Cavett! | The Dick Cavett Show

[@TheDickCavettShow]

Who is your favourite James Bond actor and who's looking forward to "No Time To Die"?

[@ringbearer1420]

Moore and Dalton.

[@captainbuggernut9565]

The 1970's were just more exciting. So its has to be Moore. Although the Craig is not bad.

[@stevephlyer]

Roger Moore, always. Just looking forward to the final Daniel Crag’s film as Bond to hope they stop making films about a Cold War spy who is irrelevant in today’s unimaginative society.

[@bbas1685]

Roger Moore was the first Bond I saw in the cinema, 'For Your Eyes Only', so he will always be my favourite Bond. I look forward to 'No Time To Die' , because I love the Bond films and Daniel Craig is a great Bond.

Fortunately we can have decades of great work he did, always watch Gold of the Seven Saints when TCM run it, he plays Irish rogue in a Western with Clint Walker, Roger unusually is smaller comic relief, they are so good together they're like Butch & Sundance a decade earlier in b&w.

I grew up in the 1970s watching Roger Moore as James Bond at my local cinema. I got to see him in person in London 2008. I asked him what it was like working with the other 'Big' stars in the 'Wild Geese', His reply was "What do you mean, the other big stars? " I was the 'Big' Star" He certainly had a great sense of humour!

[@unowen-nh9ov]

Explained he was an only child because his parents achieved perfection on 1st try. Pre-acting he was male model, his friend Sir Michael Caine said Moore appeared in so many sweater adverts. he was known as "The Big Knit".

This is something I never imagined existed in a million years and never thought I needed but much thanks to you! Love both of these fellas and damn if they didn't have great chemistry together. Shame Roger didn't do his show more. He had such a knack for comedy; he woulda been an excellent host for SNL in the 70's. Dick was excellent on it and I know Rog woulda been too.

When I think of James Bond, I automatically think of Roger Moore, for me, he is the best because he has the most qualities to characterize the role of the artist.

[@mjh5437]

My mother worked with Roger Moore when they were both fashion models in the 1950s.He asked her out on a date and she agreed because he was so handsome but she told me she found him rather boring and somewhat effeminate....I used to tease her by saying she would probably have preferrred Sean Connery and his hairy back😁

The man beat the s**t out of Lee Marvin, and that alone makes me a huge fan

[@skylongskylong1982]

The story is that they were both making the Film “ Shout At The Devil” Lee Marvin, hated Roger Moore, and told everybody once the film was finished, at the the wrap party he was going to the hit the Limy Son Of A B***h. At the party Lee went looking for Roger , someone taped him the back , and turned round, and woke up on the floor 5 minutes latter , with several people around him. Roger was already heading to the Airport. Surprisingly they made peace several years later, before they both passed away.

[@kanyewestlive6905]

Yeah her and Roger had a pretty fractious relationship and I dont really know why, he insinuated in his autobiography it's because she didnt like his scatalogical/schoolboy sense of humour and she was a bit snobbish about it, but I still dont really know much about that situation.

[@clintonsmith5163]

Interesting that Roger and Barbara apparently didn't get along well. I think that The Spy Who Loved Me is the best of the Roger Moore Bond movies. Maybe that tension is part of the reason that movie works so well. For those who don't remember, in the movie Bond was responsible for the death of Triple X's (played by Bach) lover. The script called for a fair amount of tension between them because of that.

[@kanyewestlive6905]

@@clintonsmith5163 I dont think Bach's performance is that great in the film so I think maybe its do more with the script than the acting

[@clintonsmith5163]

@@kanyewestlive6905 Her performance is what some people might call wooden or robotic. Whatever you call it, I think it worked for that character, who I see as a cold-blooded, well-trained spy who is attempting to suppress her emotions.

Roger pretending to stumble onto the stage after Cavett talked about how that sort of thing never happens to him was a great showcase of his acting intelligence

[@rickjames9564]

Every generation has an opinion when it comes to 007… I find myself talking to my friends and they always say “Daniel Craig” or “Pierce Brosnan” when the conversation of best James Bond comes up. And I get the strangest looks at 26 when I am asked for mine and I say “Roger Moore every time.” His stretch may have had its cringy moments, but the balance of comedy and action Roger could do was and still is my favorite. So many goofy quotes, the way his eyes do the talking almost like Al Pacino is known for, he just was such a class act and goofball and I’ll always be a sucker for ‘73-‘85.

This is the first time I’ve ever heard him speaking as himself and I have to say he has the greatest British accent I’ve ever heard. And he’s got to be the suavest motherf’ckr in history. It’s a shame the quality of the 007 films went into the crapper towards the end of his run.

🔹️ Roger Moore must have liked Dick Cavett quite a lot, otherwise he would not have come back on several times

[@frantrictantric]

When he did the television series the Saint he was the highest paid actor receiving £1000:00 Pounds per episode. A staggering amount in the early sixties. Also he was given a blank cheque by the producers so he could choose the car he used in the series. Most expected him to go for a very British Jaguar or an Aston Martin, but he chose the Volvo P1800S. Great car and i used to own one.

[@skylongskylong1982]

The real story is that when they produced the first Saint series in 1962, the producers approached Jaguar, so their E Type Jaguar would be the Saints car. They were not interested, but Volvo approached the producers, and provided two P 1800 road cars, and cut away car they could use for studio filming. On top of that Roger Moore was given a band new P 1800 every year from 1962 till 1969. Also you may also notice that each time Volvo up dated the P1800 a new updated version appeared in the series. When Jaguar heard that the Return Of The Saint was being made in 1977, they provided not only three new XJS , but mechanics. This info from The Saint Fan Club, on line. If you are a keen SAINT Fan, look up The Retirement Report, they post at least two episodes a week.
