As in Mr Attenborough, getting on, needs replacing but who?
Stephen Fry, David Tennant, both have good voices, but are clearly just acting a script. Leaves something missing, so let's have your nominations who is to take on the role? |

Go on, I will give it a whirl...
And there stepping out from the shadows is the Fab lurker, taking those first tentative footsteps before having to run the gauntlet.
almost half of newbie posters return UNLOS in a matter of weeks, to survive will mean having to develop wit, thick skin, charm and humour.
Women fabbers will be outnumbered 100 to 1 and will need all their skills to avoid being overwhelmed.
Ahh there goes the single male fabber, he is trying to impress the ladies with an impressive view of a sky remote or a dirty bathroom... |

I personally think the only chance of a replacement is to find someone who is currently filming wildlife.
The editing, contacts, and ability to sit in a jungle being sniffed by a gorilla is not a skill set many have. Then they also need the voice. |

The one that does is Gordon Buchanan and he is BBC.

Yes good choice, got a bit to learn but the benchmark is high. |

Why try and replace him with one person.....
There is a wealth of talent who can all add something in their own way...
I'm sure David would be the first to say the true star of the programmes he's made is the natural world .....
Or they could just give the job too me...

Let's face it his comedy days are behind him. And I'd find it hilarious watching him run across the Serengeti being chased by the wildlife.
There is no-one that could realistically replace Sir David

"Steve Backshaw or Bradshaw or whatever his name is.
Used to front 'Most Deadley' and is married to that Olympic rower.
That guy. He's good at nature and stuff"
He gets my vote |

"David Attenborough is a national treasure, i honestly can't think of anyone who could fill such massive shoes."
Sometimes Google can be such a let down....
I just searched David Attenborough's shoe size and it say not available !  |

9 would be my guess , but probably a 10 in hiking boots, I mean you've got to add a size for thick socks  |

For me we need to allow a natural successor too emerge...
Trying to force fit a replacement wont create a national treasure of any equal too the legend that is Sir Dave... |

You mean round up all the contestants, drop them in a jungle with a super 8 and cassette recorder and see who emerges like the plan |

Last one to be eaten or die of some horrible jungle born infestation....
Sounds fair to me... |
