To wonder who will carry on David Attenborough's work once he's no longer around? *Title edited by MNHQ**

With the recent death of Prince Philip . Which is very sad of course . It got me thinking of David Attenborough . I think the world would be so lost without him and struggle to think of anyone who could match him in advocating for nature .
To me losing David Attenborough would be worse than losing Prince Philip .

Think they gave Alan Titchmarsh a nature programme a few years back. Didn't have that gravitas of course and he has not been on anything similar since. It's a tough one.

There is also Chris Packham.

Chris Packham would kick some ass, he'd be great imo!

I can't be arsed with him but I hope he lives on for a few years yet.

Greta might not have experience but she's a fantastic communicator and totally dedicated to conservation.

Forgot about Chris Packham, definitely the natural successor.

Gawd, I wouldn't keep the telly on for five minutes of Thunberg's one note ranting, never mind an hour. It would just be shot after shot of that bloody polar bear interspersed with footage of her going "YOU did this. YOU did this. HOW DARE YOU?"
