Article Abstract:
The appeal of broadcaster Sir David Attenborough to both the general public and academics is analysed in the light of his latest series, "Life in the Undergrowth", which is due to start on BBC1 on 23 November 2005. Attenborough notes that he would like to think that he has a proper respect for science and facts and that, through his work, he hopes to help "make sense of what is going on around us".
