FILE - In this Thursday, May 17, 2012 file photo, British television personality Sir David Attenborough stands with a floral sculpture of himself at Kew Gardens in London. From jungles to deserts to mountains, the BBC's epic nature series "Planet Earth II" takes viewers around the world - and around many genres of television. The seven-part series, which begins in the U.S. on Saturday, Feb. 18, 2017 with a simulcast on BBC America, AMC and SundanceTV, is a spectacular demonstration of how far nature programs have come. And no one has been more closely linked to their evolution than David Attenborough, the 90-year-old naturalist who narrates "Planet Earth II." (AP Photo/Kirsty Wigglesworth, File)
