The Cambridge Children Interview Sir David Attenborough & Latest News Updates
Can anyone think of a more delightful surprise than national treasure Sir David Attenborough answering questions about animals from the Cambridge children? George, Charlotte and Louis very adorably each had a question for the broadcaster and natural historian.
It was a joy to hear all three of them speaking. George in his school rugby shirt, Charlotte in school uniform, and little Louis in a striped John Lewis jumper (with thanks to UFO No More). It's obviously so important for children to learn about our natural world and have values instilled which they will carry with them for life. This is such a fun and insightful way to do it.
Sir David Attenborough, we've got some questions for you...🌍🕷️🐒 pic.twitter.com/MTQ68WnOrt
— The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge (@KensingtonRoyal) October 3, 2020
Prince George was first up, confidently asking: "Hello, David Attenborough. What animal do you think will become extinct next?" Sir David revealed he hopes "there won't be any" next "because there are lots of things we can do" to stop it happening.
Next up, it was Princess Charlotte's turn. The Princess sweetly asked: "Hello, David Attenborough. I like spiders. Do you like spiders too?" To which Sir David replied: "I love spiders, I'm so glad you like them. I think they're wonderful things."
In a darling moment, Louis asked: "What animal do you like?" Sir David tells Louis: "I think I like monkeys best - because they're such fun!"
The video follows David's visit to Kensington Palace last week where he spent time meeting the children before viewing his new Netflix documentary, A Life On Our Planet, with Prince William.

We also saw William and Kate participating in a special Zoom call with local business owners and first responders from Kangaroo Island, a small community off the south of Australia, who were impacted by devastating bushfires earlier this year. Kensington Palace said: "Not only have they had to rebuild their lives from the wildfires, but they also had to manage the spread of COVID-19, which has hugely impacted their desire get back to a normal life. The bushfires caused significant damage to residents’ homes, livelihoods, along with thousands of animals and their habitats."
They were delighted to see Grace the koala. Kate smiled and said to wildlife park owner Dana Mitchell: "Oh look, so sweet. She's so cute!" William added: "She looks very well looked after. Grace looks like she has a very nice life there."
'Mitchell, who provided vital care to hundreds of animals harmed during the fires, spoke to the Duke and Duchess about how the area’s wildlife was affected, including the devastating impact on its koala population, and the work that is being done to reintroduce rescued animals back into the wild and restore their natural habitats.
Approximately 48% of Kangaroo Island was affected by bushfires over the course of several weeks, leading to the loss of two lives and significant damage to residents’ homes and livelihoods.
“It's fantastic to hear about the community spirit in Australia as always, which is what Catherine and I see when we come down there. Aussies are very good at looking out for each other and it's fantastic to see that you're all pulling together,” William said during the call.'
Kate brought back the yellow and white colour-block Roskanda dress she wore for the family's arrival in Australia six years ago. Memorably, whilst chatting to a member of the crowd in Sydney, Kate told a lady William thought she "looked like a banana".
The dress is a bespoke version of the brand's Ryedale wool-crepe dress with the colours reversed. It is described: "Paintings from Brazilian artists such as Héllio Oiticia informed Roksanda Ilincic's SS14 runway show. The Ryedale Wool-Crepe Dress shows just how beautifully such influences were interpreted. It features a bell-sleeved silhouette."
The Duchess wore it a second time during the Wimbledon 2016 championships.
And again in June for a Zoom call to mark Australia's inaugural Thank a First Responder Day.

As you may have heard, Buckingham Palace announced the cancellation of all receptions and investitures for the remainder of the year. They concluded they could not accommodate social-distancing requirements. This will include the annual white-tie Diplomatic Reception. There have also been reports we'll see changes to Remembrance Sunday, with the annual Festival of Remembrance at the Royal Albert Hall to be pre-recorded without an audience in attendance. It's a time of great flux and for the foreseeable future the traditional schedule will need to be heavily amended. I hope you're all having a great weekend and staying safe!
