There is been a lot of interest in this tweet today, but as far as I can tell it is old news.

Because Channel 4 is talking about the film Finding Richard. This was first mentioned on Liberal England in February of last year and we posted the trailer here in December.

This certainly seems a more likely theory than the confused one The Version has:

The film will shoot this week and will be submitted to the Cannes Film Festival in early March.

What today's tweet means, I suspect, is that Channel 4 is going to show Finding Richard.

That is good news. So let's enjoy the trailer again.
