that would be his 2nd wife...right ? they got married late in life....
Third - he was married before The Avengers and married Katherine Woodville during it.

Yes, very much missed. I am celebrating him every day by finding out more about his work. Must give "Blind in One Ear" and "The Avengers and Me" another read!

And as you've mentioned, narrating the James Bond 007 documentaries on the movie DVDs, plus appearing with his old mate Roger Moore (as well as talking about him on the documentary). I probably enjoy those mo(o)re than the films!
