I love David McCallum at any age.

He was so stinking cute.
Funniest line ever on NCIS...”So Gibbs, what was Ducky like when he was younger?”
Gibbs: “He was a lot like Illya Kuryakin.”
I passed McCallum in 1969 while I was riding my bicycle to Glendale Jr. College, in Glendale, California. He was on the street getting into a car. That was the young version. (And so was I! :)
First sympathetic portrayal of any Russian on American TV. The next one I can remember was (Pavel Andreievich) Chekov on Star Trek. And he was living in the 23rd century.
Was a lieutenant (leftenant?) in the British army, currently a naturalized US citizen, and (gasp!) a republican.
