The Guardian has issued corrections for several recent articles. In a piece on canned cocktails published on 25 June, a quote about the difference between canned and bottled rum and coke was incorrectly attributed to Jem Roberts of the Institute of Alcohol Studies. The quote should have been attributed to David Inglis, professor of social sciences at the University of Helsinki.
Orson Welles Film Direction Error
An article on 29 June about film archives joining forces to finish Don Quixote, a film started by Orson Welles, erroneously stated that Welles directed The Third Man and A Man for All Seasons. Welles acted in these films but did not direct them.
Other Recent Amendments
Other recently amended articles include: the Ukraine war briefing regarding Swedish defence maker Saab signing a deal to deliver 16 fighter jets to Kyiv; the US supreme court upholding a law to count mail-in ballots arriving after election day; Wes Streeting calling for a partial social media ban for under-16s, comparing it to tobacco; the obituary of David Hencke; a marine expedition uncovering 31 new species in two weeks; 1 July changes including minimum wage rises, payday super, parental leave tweaks, and other changes for 2026–27; a beginner’s guide to cooking with beans; concerns that the Reform UK chair of the Welsh environment committee may undermine scrutiny; the fight to save a farming pioneer; and an investigation into whether US drug agents allowed lethal fentanyl to hit New Mexico’s streets.
