The 59-year-old film and television icon flew in the 70s together with fellow actor Sky du Mont to London to secure the role of the playmaker of the popular British secret agent James Bond. At that time she was "very young" and very nervous, as she revealed in an interview with the radio station MDR Info. The fact that the audition mainly depended on appearance was clear to her, but did not bother the brunette beauty. "That did not bother me at the time, because I thought: What a chance!" Berben says. However, they did not get the role in the end. "It has remained in a - very pleasant - conversation." But the look can not have failed, it is still considered today as the most attractive actresses of her generation. However, she did not want to be described as "sexy", as she recently revealed. "This attribute is attached to something from the outside. 'Sensual' is a nicer term, it has to do with feelings, "says Berben, who is celebrating her 60th birthday this year. "That one likes to be sensual - that does not stop at ninety! Even an old person can be attractive. "
