Happy 100th Birthday to Sir David Attenborough!

Sir David Attenborough has spent a lifetime bringing the furthest corners of our planet into our living rooms. To celebrate his 90th birthday, we look back at a career that started by complete accident during the early days of black-and-white television. From his first expeditions in the 1950s catching pythons in Indonesia to the groundbreaking moments with mountain gorillas in Rwanda, this story follows the man who fundamentally changed our relationship with the natural world.
