The money-spinner or superimposed frauds:

"The BBC have released some info about the forthcoming DAVID TENNANT
project, Einstein And Eddington. It is due to be broadcast on BBC2 in
the Autumn. David Tennant and Andy Serkis star in this drama set amid
the chaos and uncertainty of the First World War. Einstein And
Eddington chronicles the interlinked stories of two extraordinary men
striving for a greater truth while refusing to be constrained by
national boundaries. Albert Einstein (Serkis) spent years working on
his General Theory of Relativity, which threatened to overturn two
centuries of Newtonian certainty and the foundations of British
science. Arthur Eddington (Tennant) was a prominent British
astrophysicist who, as a Quaker, believed that "truth knows no
boundaries" and bravely championed Einstein’s theories while Britain
rejected anything German. In 1919, Eddington undertook an expedition
to Africa to photograph light bending round the sun during an eclipse.
These photographs not only proved the theory to be correct, but turned
Einstein into a worldwide superstar."
