Actor Robert Vaughn, who played Napoleon Solo on The Man from U.N.C.L.E., has died at the age of 83.
Most recently, he played the role of Albert Stroller, the leader and father figure of a gang of young, London based con artists, who only scammed people who deserved it, on the BBC One series Hustle. RIP Robert Vaughn. My fourth & fifth grade lunch box.... |

I was also 'The Man From U.N.C.L.E.' fan.
RIP Mr. Vaughm. Guess that's how it works - Trump gets elected, people start dropping like flies - so much so that just an hour ago, even my youngest daughter made the same observation, then asked me if I was dying, too. Kids! They really shouldn't get their hopes up.

My dad loved that show, so that's what I watched too.
I remember the 'Illya Kuryakin' character more than who Vaughn played.
RIP, Robert Vaughn.

I've always had blonde hair my entire life. As a kid, when one of my friends and I would play "Man From U.N.C.L.E.", I always got to be Illya. I used to have some of those "Zero M" toys I'd always incorporate into the fun. Had the camera pistol, the radio rifle and the pocket knife pistol. Wish I still had them. |

This truly stinks! I still remember him from the Mark E. Salomone and Morelli ads from the 90s to today. He said "tell them YOU MEAN BUSINESS! *DUNN!* What a powerful actor he will be missed!
