Attenborough
Attenborough is the surname of two prominent British brothers: David Attenborough, the naturalist and broadcaster renowned for nature documentaries like *Planet Earth* and *Blue Planet*, and Richard Attenborough, the actor and filmmaker known for directing *Gandhi* and acting in *Jurassic Park*.
When used alone, Attenborough most often refers to Sir David, whose distinctive narration has made him synonymous with wildlife television.
We spent the evening watching Attenborough documentaries.
