My friend and colleague Richard Brock, who has died aged 86, was a BBC Natural History Unit producer for 35 years, and latterly a guerrilla film-maker trying to make a difference through his own means. He enjoyed sharing his passions about the natural world and our impact on it.

He had a long and successful working relationship with David Attenborough, starting with Eastward with Attenborough (1973).
