Rejected petition Put David Attenborough's face on the twenty pound notes before he dies!

I think, after all David Attenborough's great achievements, he should witness the countries gratitude by seeing an image of his own lovely face on the twenty pound notes. Will settle for a ten pound note but not a fifty (as I very rarely see them).

More details

David Attenborough has dedicated his life to animals, the environment and the world and, as a result, he is a national treasure!
