After months of speculation and concern that the money may have been wasted, Senator Alan Maclean, whose department made the controversial £200,000 grant to the Knights of Impossingworth project, has revealed that major progress has been made with the film and all the financing is now in place.

And, he said that things have gone so well that filmmakers Canbedone Productions are now planning to shoot the entire production – only parts of which had previously been due to be shot in Jersey – in the Island.
