Sir David Attenborough won't retire
The 96-year-old television broadcaster and naturalist has been making programmes for over eight decades but has no plans to slow down in the near future.
When 'Lorraine' host Ranvir Singh said: "This is a very special moment because we think this is the last time he is going to do an in-person camera documentary?", 'Wild Isles' producer Chris Howard replied: "Well I don’t know! David will keep going as long as he can. He’s not retiring, that’s for sure."
Attenborough previously vowed to continue informing and entertaining the masses with his fun facts for years to come.
He told The Sun newspaper: "How long do I plan to keep going? As long as I'm vertical and people ask me to do it.
"It's a marvellous time, why would I suddenly say, 'Don't bother'?"
Attenborough previously teased he has no plans to retire before he's 100.
He said: "I see no reason whatsoever why I can't live past 100. Earth has enough wonders to make more than three 'Planet Earth' series.
"The beauty of natural history programmes is they can appeal across all ages and all conditions and people can take out of it their own particular interests."
And Attenborough thoroughly enjoys looking into life on land and sea, he's got no desire to pay a visit to space.
He explained: "There's no life in space.
"Here we've got this wonderful kaleidoscope, this fantastic world."
