On a visit to the Soviet Union in November 1967, Ace anachronistically referred to Moore as the current James Bond during a conversation with her fellow Briton Markus Creevy. Creevy told her that Moore starred in the television series The Saint while Sean Connery played Bond. (AUDIO: Thin Ice)
One of the films in which Moore played Bond was available for viewing in the projector room of the Snowcap in Antarctica in December 1986. (PROSE: Doctor Who and the Tenth Planet)
