Pierce Brosnan has been voted the third best James Bond, losing out to Sean Connery, who was voted best and Timothy Dalton who came second.
The Radio Times poll invited 14,000 Bond fans to cast their vote for the best portrayal of Ian Fleming's super spy.
Connery played Bond six times between 1962 and 1983.
The Radio Times held three rounds of votes, which saw current Bond, Daniel Craig, eliminated by Connery, who got 56% of the vote.
Brosnan, who played Bond in four films, beat George Lazenby with 76% of the vote.
In the third round, Roger Moore was knocked out by Dalton, who played Bond three times, with 49% of the vote.
Brosnan placed third with 23% and Dalton came second with 32%.
Speculation is mounting as to who will replace Craig to be the next Bond. A recent GQ article suggests that there are three Irish contenders.
Poldark's Aidan Turner, Inglorious Basterds actor Michael Fassbender, and Peaky Blinder's Cillian Murphy are all linked to the coveted role, which becomes free after Craig’s final outing as Bond, No Time To Die, is released this year depending on the Covid-19 restrictions.
