  • Somerton Man doco on SBS

    From Ozix@3:633/280.2 to All on Sun Sep 17 22:06:49 2023
    What a crock of shit. Dumb yanks showing a bus ticked saying 40 cents
    instead of shillings. Stock footage of Sydney Harbour Bridge when beach
    is in Adelaide. Doco came out a few months before Somerton Man was
    identified. Why didn't they burn all copies?

    You sure you are talking about the SBS ?

    Dont get any hits on the SBS site.

    There were a couple of Australian Story eps on the ABC about him tho.

    I think it was part of a series they've been showing on SBS
    or SBS Viceland, presented by an actor from The Matrix. Here it is
    on IMDB:
    https://www.imdb.com/title/tt18376106/

    They showed ads for it, but I didn't watch it myself. Other
    episodes of that show have disappointed me already.

    It's yet another example of 15min of content stretched out to 1Hr of
    viewing time. Long live PVRs!
