James Bond actor, Roger Moore, died on Tuesday following a short battle with cancer in Switzerland.
The entertainment industry legend became a household name not only for his role as 007 but as a humanitarian for his work with Unicef.
The 89-year-old was knighted by the Queen of England in 2003, with the Order of the British Empire and to this day is still the actor who has spent the most time being James Bond.
Celebs, film critics, fans and people behind-the-scenes who worked with the actor have all expressed their sadness at the news of his passing.
