They announced it as a proper news item on Friday morning "It has just been announced that Banksy has taken over Bristol Museum - only the director and the curator knew about it, and he has removed all the artefacts and replaced them with his own works ..." so my dad and I went over at about 2pm to see it - thinking we'd avoid the crowds, and ... sure enough it was closed, ready to open the next day ...

They'd done it just to generate interest.

Sell-out bastard.
