Roger Moore wasn’t feeling Connery-levels of love from the fans after Live and Let Die, and in a brief moment of self-doubt before shooting the next film, he hastily auditions for the bit role of belly-dancer.

The main contender for the role of the Incredible Hulk, before Lou Ferrigno showed up on set and beat him to a pulp.

After the debacle that was "Moonraker", Rog felt he had to suck in his stomach to prove to EoN he still had it. THAT result was "For Your Eyes Only"... ;)


or:


Sir Rog lines up to audition for a evening job with the strip team "Thunder from Down Under"..(he got the part because of his eyebrow and mole action)... :)


or

Before Craig, (on whom Babs employed the same shirt striptease :( ), Roger was Da Man!!! :)

Eager to prove he's as manly as Sean Connery, Roger Moore exhibits the tattoo on his back to members of the FYEO crew.

Hearing their snickers, however, it begins to sink in that the "Hello Kitty" logo just does't convey the same street cred as "Scotland Forever".

This picture only recently came to light when the late Cubby Broccoli's personal files were examined by historian Sir Charles Tinkywinky. The picture, taken on the set of one of Sir Roger Moore's early films, LICK AND LET :(, is believed to have played a major part in convincing Mr Broccoli to hire Sir Roger, for the part of James Bond, as early as 1962. Unfortunatly, for Sir Roger, but luckly for Scottish actor Sean Connery, Sir Roger was under contract to film a sequel to LICK, called THE GUY WITH THE GIANT KNOB.

As it turned out, although intially hired to play the title role in KNOB, Sir Roger came up short on closer examination and was recast as Flabby Manboob, a character with no lines in the film. Although KNOB only required five weeks of filming for Sir Roger, he later suggested that no other film has expanded him as much or left his facial muscles as tired.

Despite being offered a substantial amount up front and a significant percentage stake in the follow up to KNOB, THE MAN WHO LUBED ME, Sir Roger opted to for the less lucrative role of Simon Templar in the Saint TV series and was finally hired by Mr Broccoli in 1973 to star as James Bond in LIVE AND LET DIE (some suggest that Mr Broccoli was inspired by on of Sir Roger's older films when selecting this title, although this could not be confirmed).

Rodge trying furiously to persuade the people of EON to let him take part in the circus scene in Octopussy. You can see why they didn't!

In a recently discovered photo from the EON archives, Roger Moore demonstrates that not only is it possible to be a blond and muscular Bond, but that it is possible to be good-looking at the same time.

It’s been said that Roger Moore is the kind of guy who would give you the shirt off his back.

Just mind your nearest exits in case he also starts to unbuckle his pants.

Oohy, pin-sharp and not a little cutting.

But a winner nonetheless - over to you, DS.
