I see others have chosen the wobbegong so I'll go for the Grey nurse shark - for decades unjustly blamed for attacks in Australia because they look like a 'dangerous shark' but aren't and perhaps because they have an easily remembered name.

I dunno - Josephine Tey's novel The Daughter of Time, where a bed-bound detective tries to solve a historical murder and chooses Richard and the princes, did make me wonder if he was unfairly labelled as the guilty party. But it was written decades ago so this new doco looks worth a watch

I love the 'Quick let's get out of here before those creatures kill Guy'. Just the assumption that it has to be Guy who'll die, not any of the others.

Maybe if your choice wins they'll have a big parade.

Myself and two other Australian friends went to the Carter Fold as part of a US road trip and since there were no nearby camping grounds Joe Carter let us pitch our tents on a nearby field. 'That's Carter Family land son' he told me, 'and you're welcome to stay there' Great memory of a great trip.

The not-so Handsome Family.

I've been listening a lot to That's How Every Empire Falls, written by RB Morris and done well by him, John Prine and Marianne Faithfull:

But at night he tells his woman
"I know I hide behind the laws."
She says, "You're only taking orders."
That's how every empire falls
