A lorry has broken down in Oxford Circus. It’s carrying this massive octopus
We can't help but think that there will be some very confused commuters in London this morning.
It appears to be made out of polysterene, but do take care folks, these creatures can run on their tentacles, and have nine brains.
Oh, and good luck explaining how it made you late to the boss. Unsurprisingly, Roman Trucks has confirmed that the vehicle has been hired as part of a PR stunt.
Transport for London tweets that the "broken down vehicle at Oxford Circus has been repositioned". It's now only blocking lane one on Regent Street northbound.
