From the vault - Zombie explorer discovers Oz

Landline10 September 2006 The complaint
A viewer pointed out that a report wrongly stated that Captain Cook discovered Australia in 1788, which would have been quite a feat considering he was killed in 1779.
Findings
The ABC acknowledged the error and amended the program's transcript to reflect the correct date of 1770.
