Richard Branson really does own everything. We knew he was airline guy and cell phone guy but we didn’t know he was train guy too. To promote Branson’s Virgin Trains, glue London has created a series of online films (they call them viral but we’ll see if they earn that moniker) which illustrate how much smaller Britain has become because of Virgin Train’s fast service. The first film unleashes a giant cock (no, not that kind you freak) on an unsuspecting British neighborhood to, you know, show how small Britain is compared to, um, a giant cock.

The films were shot by web guys Ben Wheatley, Joel Veitch and Rob Manuel through Tomboy Virals. The first film “Cockerel” was released this month, with the rest to be released at regular intervals up until the World Cup eight months from now. blue has placed all the films neatly on a microsite called Little Britain for our viewing pleasure.
