His journey takes him from the city of Great Zimbabwe to the pyramids of the Kingdom of Kushner in Sudan ...

The Kingdom of Kushner in Sudan? First I've heard of that. A Google search for "kingdom of kushner" gives just 4 hits - all this program description. "kingdom of kush", however, gives 216,000 results. The sad thing is, that page has been up since 9th Jan, and no one has corrected it.

A sign of the times - "Kushner" is in the news so much that "Kush" or something close to it was autocorrected to "Kushner". And no one noticed.
