Bank advert is it a VC10 tanker?

Currently showing on uk television is an advert for a bank which shows a families life changing as the kids head off in a car.Then the couple are seen walking across a vehicle mounted set of passenger access steps into an airliner in the pouring rain. I thought the tail looked odd and freeze framed it., to my surprise i spotted a refuelling pod under the wing next to an engine which i think is CGI. On top of the fuselage is the reflection of the T tail which has also been altered. i was wondering if this is a tanker VC 10 stored somewhere ?

Of course, once upon a day, ZA150 was indeed an airliner. 5H-MOG of East African Airways………..

It is ZA150 at Dunsfold, ‘cleverly disguised’ through CGI. They also flipped the image horizontally as the shot was filmed using the RH door.
