we saw the Red Arrows yesterday at the Southport Airshow, it was so good we all thought they were going to crash into each other, they were that close, haha
That's the APU (Auxiliary Power Unit). Its a generator that powers the plane when it is on the ground (electrical, A/C) so it doesnt have to run an engine. it also can start the engines when the plane is away from the terminal.
it says Virgin :33

Gotta hand it to Richard Branson - he's patriotic to the last and never misses an opportunity for great publicity!

What is the hole at the back at the plane (below rudder,between the elevator halfs) used for?

It is the exhaust for the APU (a small jet engine in the tail) gives the A/C ground power, Air con etc.

APU (Auxillary power unit)
it's a 5th engine no that plane
Its job is to supply the engines with enough air to start them, also to supply the plane with power
