Video: Watch the trailer for 'bogus' film A Landscape of Lies Both stars were completely unaware that the whole film was a sham intended to cover up a £2.7 million tax scam, London's Southwark Crown Court heard. Aoife Madden, 31, an Irish actress-turned-teacher, was jailed along with four men for lying about making a £20 million gangster film in order to claim fraudulent tax breaks. By setting up a series of fake companies the gang received £796,000 of public money, none of which was ever recovered, the court heard. When the authorities began breathing down their necks, the panicked fraudsters cobbled together A Landscape of Lies - starring McLean as bisexual therapist Dr Audrey Grey - in an unsuccessful bid to trick HM Revenue and Customs. At least ten versions of the script were drafted and pre-production work was carried out in a failed attempt to evade the investigators, but they spent just £84,000 on the six-week shoot. Jailing the gang, Judge Juliet May QC said they had created an "entirely bogus film project."
