A 24-meter barrier was being erected into the river, where the explosion would take place,” a source explained to The Sun. “But it was during the building of the set that they believed they found what they thought to be an unexploded bomb in the water.”

“Safety was the main priority, so after speaking with the police and relevant authorities the whole thing was cancelled,” the source continued. “Naturally, that part of the river is never normally disturbed, so it’s been left as it is.”
