"It is with heavy hearts that we must announce that our loving father, Sir Roger Moore, passed away today in Switzerland after a short and courageous battle with cancer." Thus Deborah, Geoffrey and Christian, the children of the British actor, announced with a tweet the disappearance of his father, 89 years old, which took place today in Switzerland, in Crans-Montana. “The love with which he surrounded us in his last days – continues the post – was so immense that it cannot be quantified with words alone”.
That same love with which the public, over the years, has lived the long and rich career of one of the most popular actors of the small and big screen. From the films in which he played her majesty's secret agent (seven films from 1973 to 1985, he was the longest in the role of James Bond) to the TV series, also famous in Italy, such as The saint, with his thief gentleman Simon templar, or Beware of those two or, before that, Ivanohoe. Roger Moore was born in London on 14 October 1927. The son of a police officer, he was drafted into the British army in the XNUMXs shortly after the end of the Second World War, serving for a certain period in West Germany, before dedicating himself to theater and later the cinema.
