However, Tom Charlie Thompson, the man who allegedly created the poster had previously apologised to the show's fans.

"I'm very sorry for any confusion caused. I have to say that the poster wasn't created with the intention to upset, anger or fool anyone," Thompson told the Metro. "It wasn't even supposed to be seen by many people. I was expecting a few 'likes' on Facebook by some of my friends who are also fans of the show."

"My original poster has my Twitter name on it. Therefore, nobody should have been confused as to whether it might or might not be real. The fact it was cropped and re-uploaded by somebody else is what caused the confusion, in my opinion. An official promotional poster would not have had somebody's Twitter name stuck to the bottom of it," he added.
