Listen "David Attenborough"
Episode Synopsis
Sue Lawley's castaway this morning is Sir David Attenborough. He brought the blue-footed booby into our sitting rooms, and revealed the secret lives of plants. But we remember him best caught in the embrace of a female gorilla.[Taken from the original programme material for this archive edition of Desert Island Discs] Favourite track: Adagio from String Quintet in C Major by Franz Schubert
