Bob Holness was one of the growing list of TV faces that we grew up with in the 1960s 70s and 80s, who are now passing on. Other recent examples have been Robert Robinson and Jimmy Saville

Each time I hear one of them has died, I feel a little bit of my childhood has gone too.

RIP

Ah, but I would not class 'jimmy' Bnd, a American agent as a true James Bond.

Rip Bob, used to watch your show....

Re: Bob Holness

Further to BG's post, the American actor Barry Nelson was the first to play Bond, and the character was called Jimmy Bond in an adaptation of Casino Royale.
