N886TW or G-PDGK?

I've had a search on here and on the web but can't find any info on why G-PDGK was recently dressed up as N886TW. Does anybody on here know why?

PDG Helicopters supplied 'GK dressed up as a US-registered Medevac for the Batman film The Dark Knight Rises, so it's been used as a film hack.

My money is on it being used in the Tom Cruise film All You Need Is Kill, which was being filmed in London in October and November last year.

Finally found it by accident when watching Jack Ryan Shadow Recruit!

Saw the Dauphin, did a little digging on google and voila! PDG Helicopters:

If you pause it at the right moment, you can see the PDG graphics under the paint work.

G-HEMS/ G-PDGK is a movie star
