On the night of August 20, 1860, an expedition left Melbourne that would go down in history as a success in spite of the hardships the Australian outback threw at the brave explorers.
The reality is a little more nuanced - and ridiculous - than the story we've been told.
Join Holly and Matthew as they follow Bob Burke and Will Wills -and their forgotten companions John King and Charles Gray - as they travel from Melbourne to the Gulf of Carpentaria, and their attempts to return home.
