Win "My Word Is My Bond"
26th November 2008
MI6 Competition
Michael O'Mara Books are giving hardback copies of Sir Roger
Moore's newly released autobiography "My
Word Is My Bond" to
lucky readers.
Blurb
Dashing, handsome and every
inch the archetypal English gentleman, Roger Moore has
starred in some of the most unforgettable films and celebrated
television series of the last half century.
Who could forget
the smooth-talking adventurer Simon Templar in The Saint?
Or that rakish playboy Lord
Brett Sinclair from The Persuaders? Roger Moore reigns
supreme as the most debonair 007 and reprised the role
of James Bond over seven blockbusting films, which are
shown time after time all over the world. His whole persona
exudes style, good living and sophistication; his millions
of fans idolize him; but he has never written his autobiography
- until now.
For the first time he will share his recollections
of playing some of the world's most famous roles - and
playing with some of the world's most legendary stars.
He talks of his family life, with memories of his London
childhood and his miserable evacuation at the onset of
the Second World War, as well as the happy and turbulent
times of later years. He tells of his marriages and children
and how he found love and contentment with his beautiful
wife, Kristina.

He reminisces about his early days as a jobbing
actor, and his first break, when he joined MGM studios towards
the very end of the contract system, and played alongside screen
legends such as Elizabeth Taylor, Van Johnson, Lana Turner, Debbie
Reynolds, Glenn Ford, David Niven and many others.
Many films and television roles followed, before
the role of James Bond was offered to him, and Roger Moore
talks frankly about the films themselves and the producers, directors
and the casts with whom he worked. Punctuated throughout with
personal
anecdotes about such luminaries as Noël Coward, Cary Grant,
Richard Harris, Stewart Granger, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin,
Gregory
Peck, Richard Burton, Michael Caine and Sean Connery, and memories
from the heyday of Hollywood, this frank, funny and disarmingly
charming autobiography is as attractive and diverting as the
man himself.
