At least it's kinda funny and completely harmless. Could have been far, far worse than it turned out.
Oh come on now, the Internet would never be so crass or terrible with something like this.At least it's kinda funny and completely harmless. Could have been far, far worse than it turned out.

Never.
The UK's new polar research ship is to be named RRS Sir David Attenborough, despite the title "Boaty McBoatface" previously topping a public vote.
Booo... who the hell is David Attenborough?

Sir Attenborough is famous for wild life documentary. One of his brothers was the Jurassic Park guy.
He's a wonderful wildlife television series narrator (Planet Earth series, for instance), an example of his finest work here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=enu-qR0H_uk
It looks like the name Boaty McBoatface would be used for one of the ships remotely controlled submarine instead
Well now that doesn't make any goddamn sense. It would have to be Subby McSubface
marble cake also the game
The Planet Earth mini-series just wasn't right without him narrating it.I'm now saddened and strangely angered that someone, on AT no less, has no idea who David Attenborough is.
I grew up with that old brit.
...Huh.Actress and conservationist Sigourney Weaver was brought in to replace David Attenborough as narrator, as it was thought her familiarity to American audiences would attract more viewers.
I think they worked in the text "Planet Earth" constantly as an incessant reminder of what we were watching.The Discovery programmes also used a slightly different script to the British original.
