She made her Television debut six years later as Claudine in the made-for-TV Drama "Victory at Entebbe" which starred Kirk Douglas and Richard Dreyfuss. It was not long before James Bond was knocking on her door.

As a relatively fresh-faced actress but a stunning and professional model, Wayborn worked opposite Maud Adams - her Swedish co-star - and the pair apparently had a ball on set. She won the role by proving her ability and physical fitness to at least appear to be a skilled acrobat.

Cubby Broccoli spotted his newest Bond girl when he saw her performing in 1980's "The Silent Lovers". In this role she played the iconic Swedish silent film actress, Greta Gabo, in a 1930s set romance story between John Gilbert and Garbo. Gilbert was played by "Spin City" star, Barry Bostwick.

Beyond Bond, Wayborn made a token few TV appearances in '80s sit-com "The Love Boat" as well as adventure "MacGyver" and even the long-running American drama, "Dallas". Her most recent screen appearance was in the action-packed but poorly rated "Forbidden Warrior" (2004).
