Still Waters Posted June 4, 2013 #1 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Veteran BBC broadcaster Sir David Attenborough underwent successful heart surgery to fit a pacemaker in London today. The 87-year-old, who was forced to cancel a trip to Australia, had been told by his cardiologist “that he is in urgent need of a pacemaker,” according to a statement from his publicist. A spokesman for the naturalist said the TV star was doing well following the procedure today. He said: "Sir David has now had the operation and his doctors are satisfied with his progress." http://www.independe...ry-8643697.html 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just watching his programs the other day and they've always been something I've enjoyed because you always learn something from them and see thins you never knew about. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am actually watching the "Human Planet" with John Hurt, narrating.. I was trying to think who is the narrator, before I saw the credits and immediately my first thought was Sir David.. This then brought back many memories of all the nature documentaries, I watched as a youngster. Get well soon Sir David, you were the inspiration to me becoming one with the woodland critters and nature in general. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
