These guys are still alive and kicking!
In this video when he said "35 years in film"... it blew my mind knowing that was almost 40 years ago... and he is still doing it now.
It's funny to think that David Attenborough would be introduced as someone else's brother. Like sure the Jurassic Park owner was a super cool dude, and yes Baron Attenborough was also famous, but David's documentaries are still being produced and relevant. As of this video uploaded, David Attenborough is 94 years old and just beginning production on another film. Crazy.
At the time, Richard Attenborough was an accomplished and world famous actor. What David was doing was in it's infancy and no one had ever heard of him. Amazing how the world has changed in only forty years.
Arthur Dent I don’t see a problem with it. Richard had been in movies since the forties.
I love this show, it's so classy.
Fact
Yeah, no other shows are like this. Talks shows these days have been become too focused on politics; because talking about politics since 2016 sell like hotcakes. Only Jimmy Fallon and Conan O'Brien remained as genuine and old school talk shows. I prefer Conan but he is more of a comedian than talk show host. Dick Cavett seems to have been the last good TV talk show host in America.
It always reminds me of Michael Parkinson style talk shows
Why dont we have quality-tv-shows like this anymore😪😪😪
God damn why did this guy have to get old 😭
Beautiful! Thanks for this! Sir David is a credit to our species
And Dick Cavett also.
@@mellow5123 too right! Both r a credit to our species
This is the best interview I have seen that Dick Cavett has done, David Attenborough is wonderful, his openness to the animal world and the delights he has brought to us with his nature programming. Both men have a great sense of humor.
are you kidding
this honestly feels the closest to celebrity interviews in late night shows today
"has anyone told you you have big teeth"
"there are gonna be gorrilas on this show"
I'm not saying this is like late night shows today, it is way better, but I've seen way more interesting interviews from Dick Cavett
Can’t win ‘em all I guess
Two lovely men, both great assets to humanity. Thank you.
Life on earth (1979) is a gem. I love it very dearly 😊
Two classy guys chatting wholesome stuff what's not to like
Dick Cavett was on par with Johnny Carson; my two favorites of all time. David was handsome.
I Michael Parkinson
I keep thinking what the natural world looked like at the time of this interview, to what it is now. Sobering doesn't come close. A great man.
Tragically diane fosse ended up being murdered protecting the gorillas. The movie gorillas in the mist was made about her.
I preferred Dick Cavett in the early 70's.
David was a physically robust man in his younger age. Looked like a rower
Still waiting on the gorilla clip
Aw no gorilla's :(

Blatant clickbait title. This was about teeth.
have nothing against the other celebs that were on this show but is this channel ever going to show the Dick Cavett shows where he interviews Jackie Gleason or Art Carney? How about any Honeymooners actors that were a part of the main cast?
This interview 40 years old and we see a small sign of the arrogance of the BBC and their senior staff of how condescending they are to ordinary working-class British people and of course this is the arrogance we have with the BBC nowadays they know best and we should be put in our place, never never never?
I noticed this too, very embarrassing for his modern image. Loves animals, hates the plebs.
You are far too sensitive
I wish Americans could learn how to pronounce "borough"
Great Pity we couldn't see the Gorilla Clip. ALSO A PITY, that old Dave, should poke his nose into politics, by telling people to vote---to stay as slaves of the EU.
Good thing for the gorillas there wasn't a cliff nearby. They could've ended up as fraudulent casualties for a political cause, just like those poor walruses.
None of those exaggerations would be necessary if an effort to justify and malinform the public about the effects of human activity hadn’t happened since half a century. I don’t like lack of accuracy, albeit nature documentaries are all entertainment any way, but what I cannot stand is lack of empathy and accountability by those that MADE the problem worse in the first place. People that don’t take the threat of climate change seriously, are as bad as those that don’t care about smoking causing cancer, or sugar being so destructive (my addiction), or opioids killing so much people, a lobby warped their opinion.
Back then he was a brave pioneer....now he's just a superannuated luvvie singing from the woke establishment songsheet.....support for which is a mile wide but only an inch deep......Today he is one of the great British bores of the 21st century.
But for sure has lived more of an interesting life than you;)
@@TheCrazystupidpeople Doesn't make me wrong....what was original and even brave back then is bog standard election issue boilerplate now....
@@jhassett2 and that’s your judgement
@@TheCrazystupidpeople Whose else would it be? I put my name to it.
-Can't face the fact that humans are causing mass extinction and too apathetic to do something at least small like recycling.
