aka North Sea Hijack.
Haven’t seen it (yet) but it got decent reviews on IMDB.com.
Roger Moore looked studly in the opening scene.

ffolkes (a.k.a. North Sea Hijack) Trying to escape being typecast, Roger Moore portrayed the bearded, cat-loving eccentric who must thwart the ransom plans of psycho (pun intended) Anthony Perkins after he hijacks a supply ship and threatens to destroy an oil production platform and its drilling rig. Ffolkes. Rufus Excalibur Ffolkes. Doesn’t quite have the same ring as James Bond, but this forgotten little thriller is worth a look.

Wow. Blast from the past. I remember watching that in my parent's basement when we first got cable TV. If I remember correctly it was small-f, small-f, as in ffolkes

I think it is at least as good as the Bond movies.

Nothing wrong with a bearded, cat-loving eccentric in my book

Roger Moore is gay. He came out several years ago.

Roger Moore is gay. He came out several years ago. That certainly would be news to his current wife.

Just because he’s British doesn’t automatically make him bi. That's a circular argument
