I was watching documentary "David Attenborough's Natural History Museum Alive" where he hides behind the exhibit of some small humanoid skeleton

What the heck is this skeleton of? I tried searching it on google but could not find any info.

Yeah I guess, the skull looks very similar, although it must be recreation of the skeleton itself because it's too good, too complete.
 
The only reference I could find was in Czech and it's a monkey/chimp, from the context, perhaps an extinct species. Although it could also just be a made up prop, as a lead into the start of the show where he sneaks into the museum after it closes.
