A man in Ireland has spotted something which he suggests might be a time traveller in the footage included with the DVD release of Charlie Chaplin's 1928 film, The Circus.
Since spotting what appears to be a person on a mobile phone in the footage, Belfast resident George Clarke has posted a video on YouTube, which has now been viewed by hundreds of thousands of people.
The scene, which is found in the extras menu in Documents, under The Hollywood Premiere, shows a person with a dark hat holding their left hand to their ear as they walk through a scene. The fingers are curved around something and the person is talking.
People have made suggestions about what is seen. Some said maybe the person was holding a hearing aid, but that didn’t explain why they were talking.
Others thought perhaps the person was mentally ill and was talking to an object such as a seashell.
One suggestion was that the studio which released the DVDs digitally added the figure.
Many people pointed out that there were no satellites of phone towers in 1928, but others said those could travel through time could probably circumvent that problem.
One person simply said that the mysterious character must be Doctor Who.
