- By JOE NERSSESSIA­N

The life of James Bond star Sir Roger Moore was celebrated with a “beautiful service” on Saturday, his manager has said.

Friends and family including actress Joan Collins said their goodbyes to the longest-serving 007, who died in Switzerlan­d last month aged 89, at a private service in Monte Carlo.

Sir Roger’s manager Gareth Owen posted a photo of the order of service on the actor’s official Twitter account yesterday. He added the message: “Yesterday we said our goodbyes in a beautiful service and celebrated a wonderful life.”

The private service took place at 11am at Saint Paul’s Church in Monte Carlo.

Collins said the funeral was a “beautiful and loving service for one of the great Saints, Knights and Gents of our time” in a post on Twitter.
