In his long and illustrious film career Roger Moore has often had a leading lady on his arm.
But last night, Sir Roger was lucky enough to be pictured with not one but four ladies on his arm. And they were all former Bond girls.

Sir Roger was guest of honour at the 52nd Annual Thalians Gala Ball at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles. He was awarded with a lifetime achievement award for his services to UNICEF.
The Gala was a star-studded extravaganza featuring four former Bond girls;
• Gloria Hendry starred as Rosie Carver in Live and Let Die, 1973
• Lois Chiles appeared as Dr Holly Goodhead in Moonraker in 1979
• Maude Adams, was Octopussy in the film of the same name in 1983 and also made an uncredited appearance in A View To A Kill, Roger Moore's last Bond film in 1985
• Serena Scott Thomas starred alongside Pierce Brosnan in The World Is Not Enough in 1999

It has been a busy time for Sir Roger, who celebrated his 80th birthday last week. He also recently received his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Sir Roger described the ceremony last week was "a big thrill".
The British actor also paid homage to the number of women he kissed on-screen adapting Ian Fleming's leading man.
"Sadly, I had to retire from the Bond films," Moore said. "The girls were getting younger or I was just getting too old."

Since his final Bond movie in 1985, Moore has done some acting in film and television.
He has also raised funds for UNICEF in underdeveloped countries and received a Commander of the British Empire award from the British government in 1999.
He also was awarded a knighthood in 2003 for his work with UNICEF.

Meanwhile, Moore's planned autobiography, whose working title is "My Word is my Bond", will tell his real life story.
"Roger has told me he won't get out of bed to write for less than one million," his agent Lesley Pollinger said. Moore said in a statement that he would like to write "a warm, amusing, and maybe even slightly emotional volume".
His book is expected to be published next year.
