British actor and film director Richard Attenborough
has died at the age of 90.
Very, very.
Well enjoy your evening.
Thank you.
Probably known best for his role as theme
park owner in the science fiction adventure
Jurassic Park, Attenborough fought passionately
to turn the British film industry into the
Hollywood of Europe.
In a career that spanned six decades Attenborough
was one of Britain's leading actors, before
becoming a highly successful director.
In 1976, the actor was knighted and was made
a baron in June 1993.
As a director, he was perhaps best known for
Gandhi, which won him two Oscars.
I'd like to think it was true.
Dedications to the late actor have been flooding
social media with Prime Minister David Cameron
saying he 'was one of the greats of cinema'.
