GALLERY 26: Virgin Trains - Skinny Cappu

Alternative means of travel pose the greatest threat to Virgin's business and here the brand uses comedian Rik Mayall to take a witty swipe at those too grand to use public transport. Waking Ned director Kirk Jones captures the comedy of the grim roadside cafe brilliantly and the train looks suitably sumptuous by comparison. A second spot focuses on the ordeal of domestic flying.
