OTHER NOTES:

oh and I might add that TOM HOLLAND (IN THE LOOP) had been through the mill during his early career....he had met  Armando iannucci through his girlfriend....and stumbled upon the whole ROMAN CENTURION network...see previous notes upon Cameron, clegg and the milibands all being given the same 'treatment'...'a coil in the brain' - along with iannucci...watch extras and interviews...

anyway, suffice to say - the film was made 'around the time' that this network had been identified and was under investigation....
