God bless him for living to be 90. I was a big fan of Illya Kuryakin. I liked everything David did including his appearances in The Outer Limits.

I never made that connection! :aargh:

Now that you've posted this, it's Crystal Clear.

He was "The Russian Dude" on "Man from Uncle" Ilian blubblubovich

And the coroner on NCIS.
 
On a side note, Armie Hammer played a ripper Kuryakin in the '15 movie...Doesn't look like there'll be any sequels, which is a shame....Would've made a great franchise.
 
David was star of one of the best Outer Limits ever, where he was evolved into a man a million years in the future.

As well as another good episode where he experimented with sliding forward and back in time.

He was married to Jill Ireland who later married Charles Bronson.

Wow, Jill really got around.

First she married The Man From Uncle,

Then she married Death Wish, when Bronson was the highest paid actor in Hollywood,

then she finally fell into love with Mr. Spock! :shok:

And all in the same decade!
