The BBC has made an extraordinary new documentary, presented by Sir David Attenborough, which will reveal the discovery of a fossilised skeleton that may be a vital ‘missing link’ in human evolution.The 90-minute programme is top secret but The Mail on Sunday has learned from sources in America that the results of the study on which it is based will be revealed by a team of scientists and broadcasters in New York on May 19."

I have a feeling this is going to be a disappointment. Maybe but I'm a fan of Attenborough and he usually has pretty high standards.

This shouldn't be called a missing link, it should be called a common ancestor species.

I hate to call freezer bigfoot on David Attenborough, this leaves me no choice. Probably the media hyping this up as something it's not.

Don't tell me, let me guess, you will hear lots of phrases like: And if this is correct then this.... It is speculated..... Of course it onl makes sense that this... If our calculations are correct, then.... So, we felt this was the best fit... So, if this...then we can only assume...

Hmm, would this be an appropriate time to que the Crystal Skull reference? Methinks it be. Sounds like Sir Attenborough is about to Nuke the Fridge.
