Readers of bikebiz.co.uk know about the film’s definitive cancellation before any of the stars who would have acted in the comedy. The sad news was broken to the production team just before noon today.
Tommy Gormley, the film’s first assistant director ("without question one of the most established, sought after and well thought of 1st Assistant Directors in Europe, if not now the world," reckons the Glasgow Film Office), told Bikebiz.co.uk that no extra funding had been found. The crew was due to start filming on 15th November.
"We had to finish filming before Christmas and the end of the tax year," Gormley told Bikebiz.co.uk.
"I’m hoping the project can be resurrected in the Spring."
