Career: After being spotted by a talent scout, Curtis was signed by Universal Pictures in 1948. He admits he was interested only in earning money and wooing girls, but he quickly built a hugely successful career. He made his screen debut with walk-on parts in several movies in 1949. By the end of the 1950s, he'd become a major star thanks to films such as The Sweet Smell of Success, The Vikings, The Defiant Ones and Some Like It Hot. More major films followed in the next decade, but in the 1970s he won new fans with TV series The Persuaders! and McCoy. Away from acting, Curtis was an accomplished artist. He suffered from several illnesses in his later years, and underwent heart bypass surgery in 1994. He died from a cardiac arrest on September 29, 2010, at the age of 85.

Career: Moore's first important film role came in the 1949 musical comedy Trottie True, but he supplemented his income by modelling. In 1953 he moved to the US, gaining a contract with MGM. He appeared alongside Elizabeth Taylor in The Last Time I Saw Paris before concentrating on TV work. Ivanhoe made him a star and he followed that with Maverick and The Alaskans. After moving back to the UK, Moore starred in The Saint and The Persuaders before becoming James Bond in 1973's Live and Let Die. He stuck with the role until 1985's A View to a Kill. Other films include Gold, The Wild Geese and The Cannonball Run, as well as plenty of comic turns as parodies of himself. He died on May 23, 2017 at the age of 89.
