Andrew Denton (interviiwer): What, for you, is the most magical place you've been to on this planet?
Sir David Attenborough: Well, I suppose, actually, it wouldn't be too far from Komodo because... I'm talking now of 45, 50 years ago. Uh, and we went to Bali. And 45 years ago, we saw one other European...who lived there. He was a painter. And the island, um, didn't have an airport. Um, it didn't have a pub. Well, it had one hotel in Denpasar. And we... Kuta Beach, which you know, and Sunur Beach — both are now lined by huge hotels — were empty. I actually slept on Sunur Beach. Um, and of course, the people are magical people — I mean, just so talented and beautiful and friendly and charming and lovely, and the few weeks we spent there in the '50s remained in my mind. I expect you thought I was going to say the jungle, or something. But, you know, tropical rainforest is...it's full of fascinating things, but I wouldn't want to live there for very long.
