Facts
Michael, who is an expert on antique weaponry, auditioned for the role of James Bond after George Lazenby left the role in 1969. Michael is a reluctant interviewee and admits to lying in interviews to make him seem more interesting. He was once asked if he minded playing a gay man in one of his roles; he replied that he did not mind as he used to be a homosexual, but had to quit as it made his eyes water! In 2015, Michael announced his retirement from stage acting due to his failing memory; previously, he had relied upon an earpiece to feed him his lines. Michael is secretive about his private life: he married wife Anne Miller in 1962, but when asked in interviews about her, he responds: "What wife?". His son with Anne is Fergus Gambon, a ceramics and porcelain expert on BBC1's Antiques Roadshow. In 2002, Michael moved out of the marital home after his relationship with his new "girlfriend" Philippa Hart was revealed. The two moved in together in 2006, and in 2007 had a child, Tom. In 2009, Hart gave birth to a second child, Will.

With no money forthcoming, the care home staff had to dress Meg in the clothes of dead residents and cut her hair themselves. Malam was jailed for two years and eight months.
