King Charles marvelled at Sir David Attenborough’s longevity during the premiere of a poignant environmental film highlighting the crucial role of oceans.
The two attended the first screening of "Ocean with David Attenborough" at London’s Southbank Centre on Tuesday, gracing a symbolic "blue carpet".
Meeting with Sir David and his daughter Susan ahead of the premiere, Charles said he was “so glad” the broadcaster was involved with the film and that it was “always a pleasure” to see him.
The King asked the veteran broadcaster about his 99th birthday, which Sir David confirmed was on Thursday, the day of the film’s release.
Charles remarked in response: “I can’t believe it.”
