David McCallum, the British actor who became a star by playing a secret agent in 1960s spy drama The Man from U.N.C.L.E., has died at the age of 90.



More recently, McCallum was known for his long-running role as a medical examiner on hit CBS programme NCIS.

"We will miss his warmth and endearing sense of humor that lit up any room or soundstage he stepped onto," the NCIS account said on social media.

The Scottish-born actor also starred in TV shows Colditz and Sapphire & Steel.

"David was a gifted actor and author, and beloved by many around the world," the NCIS tribute said.

"He led an incredible life, and his legacy will forever live on through his family and the countless hours on film and television that will never go away."

I don't actually remember ever watching The Man From U.N.C.L.E.

I think it was aired in the 1970s so you may have been too young to see it.
