I really, really, _really_ wanted to go with Horst Buchholz (who died last year, IIRC), but my sense of keeping this game alive tells me that

Robert Vaughn

is a better choise.

So, would I be really, _reeelly_ old if I said I remember _The Man From Uncle_? Although, I must admit, I liked _The Saint_ (Roger Moore was better in that than any James Bond movie, IMO) and _The Avengers_ better.

Okay. Something biblical.

**The Ten Commandments**
