2026 sees the 100th year in the incredible life of national treasure Sir David Attenborough. Honest, revealing and urgent, A Life On Our Planet is Sir David’s witness statement and his vision for the future. Despite devastating changes wrought by humanity on the natural world, his film carries a message of hope for future generations.

After the film, audiences will have the unique chance to watch a very special, exclusive conversation between Sir David Attenborough and Sir Michael Palin. This will only be available in cinemas.

A life On Our Planet has much to say about how our actions have been detrimental, but its lessons are also about the myriad of solutions we should now pursue. In the words of Sir David, “we need to learn how to work with nature rather than against it”. It is these solutions – and the choices we can collectively take now to secure a better future – that we will focus on during the panel discussion with audience Q&A after the film.
