A great reminder of how varied and influential Attenborough's career has been, my only gripe with this is that it's only an hour long: I could happily watch more. The man himself comes across as a good egg too, particularly considering his age. Lively, ever-interested, intelligent, straight-talking and a sense of humour to boot, here's hoping he continues to impact our lives for years to come.

An immensely charming figure in relaxed mode.
