David Attenborough was an English broadcaster known for his nature programmes.

He frequently collaborated with Jo and Clifford Jones, one such series they worked together on was Attenborough in the Amazon, where in the first episode they documented the vegetation of the Borneo Basin. In the third episode, Jo and Cliff did not appear, but instead was accompanied by the BBC Natural History Film-Making Unit when he visited Darkest Peru "off the beaten track" from the Amazon. Topics such as whether a lost civilisation was actually visited by "flying-saucer people" and if Attenborough befriended a cockatoo. (PROSE: Greyhound: A Memoir)
