    Did anyone else see the words ‘David Attenborough…’ and feel their heart sink a bit, thinking he’d died?

    Then I cheered up, life in the old dog yet, bless him

      I rather thought that the fact there will be no Planet Earth IV is a rather ominous sign of our future biodiversity.

      Every damn time. My poor heart.

      All David Attenborough headlines should start with ‘Still alive and well David Attenborough…’

      First thing I thought was like “phew, not dead. What a sad day it’ll be once he does die”. He’s been narrating so good haha documentaries I’ve seen for as long as I can remember (and since I can understand English).

      I’ve always said that he’ll die while narrating in the recording booth.

      Honestly, I was pleasantly surprised to be reminded he was still alive. I keep forgetting it was his brother that died, and not him.

      I cheered up a bit when I realized he wasn’t dying, then I got sad again when I realized Planet Earth is dying.
