David Attenborough

Sir David Attenborough is a naturalist and a broadcaster. He is most famous for being the voice and face of documentaries for the BBC, predominantly those regarding nature such as 'Blue Planet' and the 'Life' series. He usually narrates his documentaries rather than presents them, therefore they are shown in a poetic nature more than any other style.

Over the last 25 years he has established himself as the world's leading natural history programme maker with several landmark BBC series, including:

Life on Earth (1979)
The Living Planet (1984)
The Trials of Life (1990)
The Private Life of Plants (1995)
The Life of Birds (1998)
The Life of Mammals (2002)
Life in the Undergrowth (2005)

Attenborough worked on a multitude of documentaries, one of his most famous being the 'Life' series, where he looks at evolutionary history of animal species and the like. He is also famous for his narration of 'Planet Earth', and has a knighthood for his famous voice and passion for his subject.



Due to Attenborough's interest in the subject, he has gained up most respect for his work in the natural documentary industry. Recently, warned and informed the country of the climate change issues surrounding the planet, and warned of an 'ecological disaster'.
