Another Virgin in QoS

Hello chaps,

saw this article and thought you might like it, as I was really tickled with the cameo in CR.

What is slightly intriguing is the part about
"But the Virgin Atlantic scene in the new film is so critical to the plot that a similar edit job will be impossible." :v

British Airways reputation as the worlds favourite airline has been dealt another blow this time from the worlds favourite secret agent

The troubled airline has been reeling from the impact of the disastrous opening of Terminal 5 and the loss of thousands of pieces of luggage

The result has been a £62 million loss for BA for the first three months of the year so far

Now the airline has been snubbed by no less than secret agent 007 himself

The forthcoming Bond movie Quantum of Solace sees Daniel Craig boarding a plane but instead of hopping onboard the UKs flagship carrier he opts for Virgin Atlantic

Its a real coup for the airline with its name being splashed across the silver screen but not its first dalliance with the world of Bond

Virgin boss Richard Branson, managed to land himself a cameo role in the last 007 flick Casino Royale

He was filmed being frisked at Miami airports check in while a few Virgin Atlantic planes appeared on screen shortly afterwards

At the time BA was so miffed that the offending scenes were edited out when the spy film was shown as part of their in flight entertainment programme

But the Virgin Atlantic scene in the new film is so critical to the plot that a similar edit job will be impossible

Result? Looks like Virgin will be the choice of airline for travellers looking for a Quantum of Solace in flight while BA drops it like a hot potato.

    Another good one would have been,
    Bond does another virgin, but then I thought that might offend!
