"Attenborough's son said that his father died at lunchtime on Sunday.

In 2013 he was moved into a care home in west London, having suffered a stroke five years earlier that confined him to a wheelchair.

His family said last year that Attenborough never fully recovered from the stroke that left him in a coma for several days."

I hope he's around for longer, but he is 88. He does admit he has a lot more difficult getting around these days, but he does look younger than he is.

Must be tough for David. His younger brother John Attenborough died 2 years ago, and now his older brother has sadly passed away too.
