For some reason, I just picture someone in a back room using a telegraph and tapping out Morse code for this.

I think this was a joke by the star, and he did too good of a job pulling off the "deadpan serious this really happened" to the masses. Once he realized that admitting the joke after letting it go so long would create a backlash, he let it go and won't comment. I also think he has a new movie coming out and this will create tons of publicity for the movie and himself, so for purely selfish reasons he will let it fly to keep getting the attention and press. MHO.
The problem I have is some of the media and the folks here making a connection to DHS/TSA when in this case, (had things even occurred the way they said) we would not have been involved at all.
Said movie star could have another reason for letting this go, he had some conflict with US authorities last year (I think, I am just too bloody lazy to look it up) and this could be a way to take a backhanded swipe at both the US and UK governments (because look at how many sources have already named TSA/DHS when they were not involved). Again, MHO.
