Attenborough's birthday card from the King.

[Globules]

I just love this video. Needed to tell someone!

That was lovely (apart from the flat tones of Gary Barlow)

That was lovely and I was amazed at how incredible he looks at 100.

Was also mesmerised by Charles’ sausage fingers he really does have huge hands

There was no need for Gary Barlow to get involved. Is there nothing he can’t ruin with a song?

We are very lucky to have had David Attenborough in our lives for so long. What a warm, wise man he is. It's impossible to imagine a world without him, but it'll happen.

And I agree about the king having grown into his role recently.

This made my day

That was lovely I shed a little tear

Ahh that was lovely 🥰

I thought that too about Charles' fingers!

Glad you mentioned it 🤣

Utterly beautiful ❤️ x

Glad it wasn't just me. The standing ovation at the start set me off and it didn't get better!

Oh, beautiful. Thank you for sharing ❤️

It's expertly and beautifully done. A simple idea well executed. Makes me cry. Agree that there could have been a more elegant music choice though.

Also Judi Dench and her tortoise 😂

Love it! And also shed a tear.

The King has farmer’s hands.

Thank you so much for sharing this OP, it is absolutely lovely.

I loved this as well. Wouldn't it be beautiful if our wonderful wildlife could provide an actual service like this.

Well George 111 was known as Farmer George.

Lovely! So British too 😊

Just lovely, reminds me how much I miss home, living here in NZ. Made me cry!

You can take the girl out of Lancashire but not Lancashire out of the girl.❤

And Tsar Nicholas wanted nothing more but to be a gentleman farmer on a large estate. I always felt sad about that. He was fundamentally unsuited to being an autocrat.

Anyway- I liked KC's vignette. I adored QE's Olympic one and this was in many ways nice homage in spirit to that as well.

That is so beautiful and has made me cry. Amazing men.

That was lovely. The hedgehog was 😃

Best thing I’ve seen in ages and really made me cry. I just adore DA and always have done. He’s a true national treasure and has delivered education in the guise of entertainment to the entire world.

I like to think the owl ultimately delivering the letter was a Harry Potter nod 😃.

Agree about the fingers.
