Among the Blocked site and in other places, we refer to Virgin Media quite frequently as just "Virgin".

Clearly everyone knows what we mean when we use "Virgin" in the context of referring to an ISP, so there's no real room for confusion, but this is quite colloquial and Virgin Media are not part of the Virgin Group so it's definitely something we should avoid in official reports.

Some pages where we also do this:

@alexhaydock Some of these are in MODX - I will discuss with you and @edjw which of these we can fix so it's clear which are left for @dantheta

In a similar vein, this is Talk Talk. The ISP goes by "TalkTalk".

We're not so bad for that one on the Blocked site, only using it on the url check page, and the FAQ page, but I've just cleaned up a few instances of it in the report from the older text we integrated.
