Attenborough, aged 98, was BBC Two controller in 1967 and was a major advocate for colour television. He was the driving force as Wimbledon was beamed in dazzling colour for the very first time that year – and therefore has carved out a special status in the history of The Championships.
Former Manchester United and England superstar Beckham is a regular guest at Wimbledon, with numerous appearances over the years. Anything to take your mind off being a Three Lions fan, I suppose…
Sir Cliff Richard, Graeme Le Saux, Alexander Armstrong and Sir Richard Branson have also been spotted in the box today.
