The BBC has reported that filming has begun for a film inspired by a real life hoax that took place in 2004 in order to expose ageism in the music industry. Around six years ago Alarm front man Mike Peters penned and released a comeback single which was then performed/mimed by a more youthful The Poppy Fields – a band that formed only as part of the hoax. The single made the top 30. Lily Allens dad Keith Allen and ex-Eastenders geezer Phil Daniel will star in Vinyl which is based on these events.
