Just remember that last week the Beeb stopped a woman selling to friends knitted models of Dr. Who villains !
Copyright is a pain. People like George Lucas are generous in allowing/encouraging fan films based on his movies. But sometimes you can see why people object ...

The publicity is great! It is a perfect story for most newspapers and a model of how to get press coverage: give them something they want to print. Here the contrast between the staid image of bank staff and the silly fun of a Star Wars pastiche are irresistible.
But as of 3pm Saturday 20th September neither URL showed the film. In both cases it was marked as "withdrawn by user" ...
But I did eventually find it at
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=TmG3oJykYnQ in what YouTube (bless em) call HD - which means 448x336 pixel size.
I think the sheer zest of the performances and the range of shots, angles, camera heights etc keep up the interest. The same thing could have been done
SO badly by someone else. Congratulations!
Dave
PS Ned - you keep plugging the AMPS competition, which is fine, but the closing date was 1st September was it not? Or is there a late entry date for forum readers, perhaps?

Cheers... its been a bit of whirlwind... but sadly not for all the right reasons. The articles have been missing out that we wanted to raise the profile of the Charity we were raising money for with the film which is the Nystagmus Network.
Never mind... can't have everything?! LOL...
