MedusA Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Apologies if I've missed a thread about this already. I absolutely love anything David Attenborough presents. I watched the last episode of Life in Cold Blood last night. What compulsive viewing! As a 50-something, I have watched David since his Zoo Quest days and he is just a consumate wildlife presenter. His style is just perfect. I know he says this is the last in "Life" series, but I hope not. I will miss him dreadfully, when he finally hangs up his microphone.

Mrs Frugal Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 I love the programme but only get to see the first 15-20 minutes of it every time because David's voice is so soothing and calming that I'm asleep for the rest of the programme . I've loved the bits I've seen......... . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiggy Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 I love it too, I'm watching all the wildlife programes at the moment - I have the time- but David has always been the boss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clucky1 Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Late evening is always a bit of a difficult time with my two young daughters - But - I have got to hand it to David he had them transfixed the other night with a 'snake' episode. I got a bit tense when one of the rather large snakes started to eat a 'now dead' antelope. My girls seemed to 'love it' It got them asking some really good questions too.

clucky1 Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 The bit with the fluffy 'tweety-pie' waiting for its fate was a bit too much to bare. Glad they 'cut' that bit out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luthien Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 The bit with the mother croc got me it was sooo sweet. The way she looked after them and waited for them to catch up with her and also the other mum croc helping her baby croc (I forget the name) out of its shell was amazing and so tender too.

Tessa the Duchess Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 I didn't see this last night, but I did watch another wildlife programme on much later all about 'Lonesome George' the only male giant turtle left in the world who lives on the Galapagos Islands. Tourism is destroying the wildlife there, so don't go there for your hols. OK? Tessa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
