The video was shared by key figures from the series, including writers and actors Simon Farnaby and Martha Howe-Douglas, who portray poltergeist Julian Fawcett MP and Edwardian Stephanie “Fanny” Button, respectively. Additionally, cast members Jim Howick, known as scout leader Patrick “Pat” Butcher, Mathew Baynton, who plays poet Thomas Thorne, and Laurence Rickard, the caveman Robin, also posted the enigmatic clip. This coordinated effort has led to intense fan discussions about what the gesture might signify for the future of the show.
