Virgin Books is the book publishing arm of Virgin Enterprises. Under license from the BBC, Virgin (then known as Virgin Publishing) published the Doctor Who New Adventures and Missing Adventure novels, as well as the Virgin Decalogs anthologies. After losing their license, they published the Virgin Bernice Summerfield New Adventures, which also take place in the Doctor Who Universe, though do not feature the Doctor.
Richard Branson runs a large company called Virgin from the UK. Their activities involve clean-up operations, which he oversees personally. His intentions are genuine, but he doesn't object to a little publicity along the way, either.
He's smart enough to know that you don't get sharks in the Thames, though Jawbreaker disagreed.

Following the discovery of Transformer bodies in the Thames, Richard Branson led a crew from Virgin to remove them environmental hazards, come rain or shine. No sooner had they hauled the bodies of Centurion and Megatron[1] above the water than a team of Decepticons showed up to steal them and fly them back to Shockwave.
Branson appeared cross at the Decepticons as they took the bodies away. In which case he may have had more in mind than simply disposing of them. (Or he just didn't like being put out of a headline.) Salvage!
