Anyone see Cutting Edge - the dark side of the moon?

I saw it in Australia - must have been world wide, had some huge names in it :) Started out quite serious ... almost taken in and it gradually got more and more silly ... and then I remembered the date.

Yeah pretty tame April the 1st.

Yeah I saw that but didnt watch right to the end. So did they admit at the end that is was all a joke for april 1st? I left thinking, "not suprised..."
