Scottish actor David McCallum, known for his role as a secret agent in the 1960s spy drama ‘The Man from U.N.C.L.E.’ has passed away at the age of 90.

The actor is said to have peacefully departed this morning due to natural causes at New York Presbyterian Hospital, with family members by his side. The previously scheduled 20th anniversary NCIS marathon will now feature an ‘In Memoriam’ card in his honour.

The Glasgow-born McCallum was the last remaining original cast member on CBS’ ‘NCIS’ portraying the eccentric but efficient Chief Medical Examiner Donald ‘Ducky’ Mallard.

One tribute came in via social media from the NCIS account “We will miss his warmth and endearing sense of humour that lit up any room or soundstage he stepped onto,”

“David was a gifted actor and author, and beloved by many around the world,” the NCIS tribute said.
