If Kiran could invite one person to her dinner party, it would be Sir David Attenborough and this is why:
For a start, imagine having that legendary voice narrating the evening—”And here, in their natural habitat, the guests gather, engaging in the ancient ritual of passing the breadbasket…” It would be worth it for that alone.
But more than that, Sir David is one of the most inspiring and genuinely brilliant people around. He has seen more of the world than most of us could ever dream of, from the deepest oceans to the most remote rainforests, and he tells stories in a way that makes you see the world differently. I can only imagine the dinner table conversation—tales of close encounters with wild animals, breathtaking landscapes, and maybe even a few behind-the-scenes mishaps from his years of filming.
And the best part? He’s effortlessly charming, endlessly curious, and completely unpretentious. No politics, no ego—just pure fascination with the world and a lifetime of experiences to share. Plus, after all those years of filming in the wild, I like to think he’d appreciate a good meal in a warm dining room.
So yes, Sir David would be my ultimate dinner guest. And if he decided to narrate the dessert course? Even better.
