Michael Hornby Billington was one of Britain’s best-loved film and television actors, probably best known for his role as Colonel Paul Foster in the popular 1970s science fiction series UFO, but also starred in long-running historical drama The Onedin Line and mini-series Edward VII. He screen-tested a record five times for the role of James Bond, but ultimately played the smooth Soviet agent in The Spy Who Loved Me.
