It wasn’t long before the Facebook page that uploaded the photo admitted via the Facebook comments section that they were indeed just a hoax, and was a scene from an upcoming TV show – what show the photo is from however remains unknown.

It’s for a TV show, good lay out! 😊 Shame some people had to be very nasty about it on this post though

He he!! We can’t wait to see the documentary now! Hopefully the producers will pick the food they used back up and make Nessy a breakie for tomorrow! 😜

Regardless, the photos do not show Nessie and thus should not be circulated as such.
