Re: "The wonder of Sir David Attenborough"

[Denver Fowler <df9465@yahoo.co.uk>]

You know, I wouldn't mind watching the US version of these shows if they didn't 
butcher them so badly. I remember 'walking with prehistoric beasts' being 
virtually unwatchable on US Discovery. The "Planet Earth" US version was 
annoying too. I'm happy to wait for a US screening of life in cold blood, but I 
suspect they'll just ruin it... probably replacing David Attenborough with some 
Hollywood C-lister who struggles to pronounce the names of the animals 
correctly. Maybe I'll just shell out for the UK DVD when it comes out (end of 
feb?).
