Will Ferrell is speaking to random British people in train toilets

Walking into a public toilet, locking the door and then hearing a voice speaking to you would normally be the stuff of nightmares.

When the voice belongs to Will Ferrell, though, it's sort of okay.

On Monday, journalist Gavia Baker-Whitelaw shared the following video from inside the toilet of a UK Virgin Train.

"The toilets on this train FORCE YOU TO LISTEN TO AN ADVERT FOR DADDY'S HOME 2," she wrote on Twitter.

Here's the transcript from that video:

"The door is now locked. Welcome to the Virgin Train washroom. I'm Will Ferrell, the star of the new movie Daddy's Home 2. You'll be pleased to know that it's only my voice in here. You can't see me, but I can see you. Only joking, I'm just joking!

Please don't try to flush nappies, sanitary towels, paper towels, unwanted Christmas jumpers, turkeys, Christmas lights, or granddads down this toilet. Thanks you."

A quick look on Virgin Train's Twitter feed shows that Ferrell's voice message is obviously part of a larger, toilet-themed advertising campaign.

The ideal conditions for a train toilet are probably silence, but hey -- if you have to listen to someone's voice, it might as well be Ron Burgundy's.
