Sir David Attenborough


Saw Sir David in the salubrious confines of The Regent Theatre Melbourne the other weekend. Yes he had pants of a non descript colour but only really mid Harry High and a light blue shirt as predicted. He was really funny and affable as you would expect. I felt that a lot people were there to just pay respect to the man and applaud his pioneering work. He was getting woo hoos from the crowd like a rock star. He was sharp as a tack, unbelievably lucid for a man of his age. He told a story pertaining to the above picture. The camera man missed a whole bunch of great footage, where the female ape put her finger in Sir David's mouth and another one was patting him on the head, because they were waiting for Sir David to say action. It took another 3 days to luckily get this footage but it wasn't quite the same. It's still awesome! (from episode 12 of Life On Earth) Standing ovation, Respect!
