Hello all,
A few of us at work got talking about the legend that is Sir David Attenborough because of his new documentary Planet Earth 2 (which is great by the way).
While talking about this, one of us said that he was an Actor and one or two agree with him. They say that because he probably follows a script he is acting. The rest of us think he is not, but a presenter. Looking at the definitions of acting and actor it is more playing the role of a fictional character? I can kind of see their point.
What say you old wise OCUK?
EDITED to add Sir to his name because I fail. Apologies for not adding it in title.
