About Bobbin

This week's question with the obvious answer from that fellow who has no sense of humor and who dumped on one of my treasured personal reminiscences (and about 10 of my 15 minutes of fame) by implying that I was lying, is: "Is David McCallum, who plays Ducky on 'NCIS,' the same actor who was on 'The Man From Uncle'?"

If there was ever any doubt, the following dialogue in an episode of "NCIS" earlier this year made it abundantly clear:

Agent David -- "Ducky seems kind of familiar. Who does he look like?"

Gibbs -- "Illya Kuryakin."

I guess the questioner wasn't a big fan of either show.
