And here we have... a national treasure spotted amongst an urban jungle
We unveiled Sir David's new figure in the stunning Barbican conservatory surrounded by over 1,500 species of plants and trees, some of which are endangered and rare in their native habitat.
Our talented team of studio artists used hundreds of reference photos and hours of footage to carefully craft Sir David's new figure to ensure his likeness is true to 'Life', styling Sir David in his signature short sleeved light blue shirt, khaki-coloured chinos and tasteful watch.
