Funny misprint: orang utan, Michael Jackson & Prince Philip!

One of my fave indulgences, Fortean Times, had this wonderful typo on p.8 of the June 2008 (FT236) issue, in the Sidelines column:

"...On 10 February, Ah Meng, an orang-utan who starred in 30 travel films, and had been Prince Philip and Michael Jackson, died in Singapore Zoo, aged 48".

You may now applaud my restraint in not remarking "Well, that explains a thing or two...!"
