I don't believe that. How does a digital copy of a 2 year old movie get transferred to a hard drive, encoded, shipped, and decoded without anyone noticing that it's the wrong movie? The run times are different, the studios are different, and projectionists still test the copies to make sure they're not corrupted, so they would notice it's the wrong movie. Especially if they already made the mistake before.
Trained projectionists are as rare as Jedi knights these days. I don't know about the UK, but older family films are brought back as morning matinees in theaters here, especially in the summer.
Oh yeah, my local theater has those, its like free or something on Tuesdays. Maybe they did indeed play the wrong one once. But three times? You need a better labeling system.
