Prince William and David Attenborough have a conversation, standing up in what looks like a television studio with rigged ceiling lights and white pillars in the background. They are standing and William is on the left, a head taller than Sir David and wearing a beige checkered sports jacket and open blue shirt. He looks intently at David, who is wearing a dark blue sports jacket and open white shirt, and has his hands up and open, seeming to emphasise an important point. A look of serious concern is on his face as he looks directly at William, mouth open in mid conversation..
