Not many people can boast that their first job was researching for David Attenborough. I first walked through the doors of the BBC Natural History Unit on Whiteladies Road in Bristol in the spring of 1993. To anyone interested in wildlife or television, it was a place that felt less like an office and more like a shrine. As a 21-year-old fresh zoology graduate I’d … Continue reading My first job for David Attenborough
