Sorry if this has been discussed elsewhere but was it intentional to have a massive baby masquerading as a new born in Le Donk?
Sposed to be new born but must have weighed 2 stone and was talking!!
;D

Olivia Colman was genuinely pregnant in the film, and the baby in the film is her son Finn.
That scene was the fifth day of shooting that had been reserved for pick-ups which was a few months later. Shane and Co had been editing for a while and they realised that Le Donk's child was a great emotional thread through the film that needed rounding off.

It was made into a joke in the film, Olivia said something about the baby being the biggest the doctor had seen... or did I dream that bit?

Yeah that is one bigggggggggggg newborn baby, baby!
If it had been in something like DMS then I think I would need a good hiding, but in Donk, it just makes me laugh at how wrong it is.
If ever we make a second Donk, I've got Nickolai Valuev lined up to play 'Finn' as he starts school.

Should have got Gary Coleman as the baby. Would have been funny skirting around the skin colour issue but hey
