fantastic to see all the cast of on the buses later in life am a massive fan of on the buses makes me proud to be english an brilliant interview to watch
@wayneypayney That is what happens...It is the ONLY thing that is certain, And it is the ONLY thing we all have in common...We die! There is nobody gets out of that one, As you get older you are less bothered about the fact you WILL die. Can you imagine if you lived forever, I do believe you would go insane if you lived forever and did not age. The novelty of living forever would soon wear off and you would go insane OR/AND end up taking your own life.
Didn't Cicely Courtneidge play 'Mum' of Stan in the pilot version? This was a lovely comedy though the ones done without Reg were a bit like the 'Merry Men' without Robin Hood .
@rewinder47 That's right cos Doris Hare apparantly had minor role in Coronation Street during the first series in 1969, though thought Cicely Courtneidge played Mrs Butler fairly well, its Doris who really won many adoring fans hearts, as for Reg Varney leaving halfway through the final series in 1973, don't think it was ever revealed why, but like how you put that last part, the remaining episodes without him, were like the Merry Men without Robin Hood.
I was lucky enough to work as a bus conducter, Grey trousers, green blazer and tie, peaked cap optional but I used to love wearing mine, leather satchell and the Almex ticket machine. Mental arithmetic and a sense of balance essential.
Such a shame 2 see someone so young already so bitter. U really need 2 take a look at history. What the hell has colour got 2 do with great comedy? Have u ever heard of Windrush? There were thousands of W.Indians that came 2 Britain in the early 60's that have contributed greatly 2 the UK, Many had fought in the WW2 to save the UK & give you the freedom you have today. Indians run all the shops because your average white person would not want to work the hours & I'm a white male
@fookyooman indians run all the shops for one reason as you stated english would not work late hours,i have one corner shop near us and they close at nine,and its run by white english,and there is another but about 10 minutes walk away,not really far,and they close at 12,and thats run by indians,jsut shows who is more commited to work and hard working and i am not english,neither am i indian
@manisco1 I am white british, my father owned 2 shops from 1966 up to 1983 when he retired.
He worked from 5 am in the morning until 12 midnight. He had 2 saying ' get it while you can ' and ' hard work never hurt anyone ' and when my mother died when I was 12 years old he not only run 2 shops but he also managed a house ( cooked, cleaned etc etc & bought up a child. Sometimes he'd take me up to london in the early hours I asked why only were indians out at 4am he would say what you have said.
It's so sad what happened to Bob Grant you'd never think by his actng that he had bad depression even in this interview he seemed happy as ever,even though he tried to commit a fews year earlier , i always thought he was this confident happy person but having no money and having trouble finding work is bad ,hope your up there mate womanizing all the birds like you did done here ;) R.I.P mate ,best comedy On The Buses and im 18 lol :)
@SuperSmilingSmiley No way that's 80 . No way. If it were they'd all still be wearing flares. My dad had a suit that cut in about 87 . So must be about that or indeed 1990 as stated. But not 1980. I'mm 33 by the way.
I strongly doubt this is from 1990 actually. I don't think the old woman was alive anymore in 1990. Plus the quality of the footage and overall style there has ''1980'' written all over it...
Reg Varney was SO extremely young looking for his age... he was born in 1916.... he looked at least 20 years younger than his actual age, both during the series AND in the interview....
theres no prog that has come along in the past 30 years thats compares to on the buses, my 7 year old loves watchin and finds it funny, you cant beat the oldies xxx
bob grant would you beleive how posh his real voice is compared to the show. brilliant programe brought familys together then and even now! you cant make programmes like this anymore and its a shame but what a fantastic thing eh on the busses was brilliant... thanks for uploading
All 6 of us in our family would sit down and be glued to the telly watching "On the Buses". We would howl with laughter then talk about it all week until the next episode. What I wouldn't do to be able to laugh out loud at tv nowadays. No wonder we're all reminiscing about the old days of tv. We had some fantastic funny, clean but raunchy shows back then. The Rag Trade - hilarious. Never Mind the Quality feel with Width. Only the British could come up with a title as funny as that. Dad's army!
Oh how I miss those days.Just simple plain uncomplicated humour.Sit back on the couch and relax.Not the crap knowadays.I miss comedies like On the buses,Dad's Army,Only fools and horses etc,I wonder what the hell has happened?
Thanks for putting this on you tube. Great show that I grew up on and love to this day. Who needs Political Correctness!! So much fun and so many memories. God bless 'em all.
@JuanMacready Bob was a great man I didn't find him ugly I actually had a bit of a crush on him still do if I'm honest. He was a fine actor and is still saldy missed by many fans R.I.P Bob we miss you xx
Great video nice to see the hole cast together great group of people and a fantastic show
It's amazign to see all these people in later life. I'm surpirsed at the accent of Michael Robbins and Bob Grant, very different to the show. I can see how the cancer affected Michale, he looks rather frail. Was a terrific show.
@JuanMacready He suffered from deppression due to a lack of work so dont speek about him like that. Bob grant was a great actor and made many people laugh at him and the rest of the cast. He will always be rememberd by me and many other people R.I.P Bob
Bob Grant suffered with depression for many years,so sad as these dear actors gave so much joy and laughter to thousands of viewers.I l,ove this and the Carry on Team :-)
This is pure magic!!! Nice to see the whole cast together, sad that some of them have now passed away. I enjoyed every minute of this video, thanks for posting!!
@fitnessisgood4u I'VE JUST BEEN ON YOUR PAGE, AND YOU SPENT MANY HOURS SLAGGING OFF RICHARD BURTON!!!!!!!!!!! THAT SAYS IT ALL TO ME. YOU HAVE NO IDEA AT ALL. MERRY XMAS, AND GOOD LUCK. SADDO. (by the way, you have been black balled by every AM DRAM society I belong to.) LOL!!!
Just been on "JUANMACREADY"s page. This person is hell bent on upsetting as many people as possible. Ignore the idiot. Bob wasn't a "strange man" he was very depressed, but a great man and a great actor nonetheless. Take care, buses fans.
@bettypro Yes he was a highly acclaimed stage actor before On the Buses but the series forever typecast him and he struggled to get parts after it finished. He continued to act on stage but was only once on TV again.
This was recorded in 1990. It is great to see the cast all together again. This was probably the last time they were all together. R.I.P Doris Hare, Reg Varney, Bob Grant, and Michael Robbins.

@JuanMacready You poor little misinformed boy . You probably dont find it funny as you love Cromwell - perhaps not as amusing as Oliver Cromwell`s genocide against Irish Catholics I agree . As you probably know Cromwell exterminated the people of Drogheda and Wexford and took took land from Catholics and made them move to poor land. No wonder he`s so hated in Irish history. Clearly a much loved guy eh !
when you see the rubbish on tv now and then see this ensemble together it makes you wonder. Why didnt some tv executive just stick them in an OAP home sitcom situation. British TV has sadly been going downhill since circa 1980.
Such legends! Altogether! (Bless Bob Grant) It's such a pity that things fell apart in the actors personal lives and on screen. I still love them all :D xx
What's that got to do with it being racist? I honestly can't recall any racism in On the Buses. If you have any specific examples I would be interested to know.
There was only a few remarks, such as when striking Stan refers to "you won't find any blacklegs around here..." cue looking at the black bus driver who was also referred to as Chalky. It wasn't errant racism. Back then you had a nickname if you were short, a nickname if you were tall, a nickname if you were coloured. It wasn't spiteful or disrepectful or meant that way. Hence the BBC still show it.
Brilliant show..miles funnier than the rubbish sitcoms that are on now. Arthur and Olive were just gold! Amazingly stephen lewis was just 37 when he started playing Blakey ! he look well into his 50's in the show! RIP Reg,Doris,Bob and Michael.
after watching this they REALLY need to do a fawlty towers reunion before it's too late, but i don't see that happening because connie booth went a lil funny
stephen lewis could come back as bus depo manager , i know hes getting on a bit but this role would suit him good.then we just need a stan and another bossy inspector .
if anyone has watched inbetweeners the guy who plays jay looks a spitting image of bob grant and he's a great actor he has just played young del boy on rock and chips,so he could play conductor . i would also give anna karen the mum role as she would know what the role would need.
I have enjoyed watching On The Buses from an early age, mainly the 3 films that were made and still watch them now many years later. Harmless, funny British films with great characters and talented actors. Perhaps if ITV (or was it LWT?) had not rejected the idea of a new series then Bob Grant might not have gone into depression and ended his life so soon... I wish they were all still around, but at lest we get to see Aunt Sal on E'enders now & then!
that was funny when reg said he did not learn all that much from going to the bus depot to see them work, as well as when he mentioned the woman and her husband in the car, who saw the great dane sitting next to reg in the drivers compartment, and the woman said "jesus christ there's a dog driving that bus" ha-ha.
Yes, I too am of the opinion that if a person makes a joke that I personally don't find funny then that person should die. Anyone who thinks that I'm an idiot for making such a sweeping statement is clearly misguided.
they aren't all dead, Olive and Blakey are still alive. Olive makes an occasional appearence in Eastenders now and then as Peggy Mitchell's sister. Btw are you black, only a black person would find a black man being called chalkie the most racist thing in the world.
Racist? you having a laugh, the most racist thing they had was a black driver called Chalkie. I can think of much much worse shows at that time for racism. Go ask Alf Garnet, i'm sure he'll answer that for you !!
Arthur and Olive (when she was married) name was Rudge, I'm sure it came out in series 7 when the flashed back to when they all met Arthur and his name was Rudge and he was pretending to be a doctor.
I am watching all the episode's at the moment with my 5 year old daughter who is American.
I am a Brit who grew up with On the Buses.
She loves the show and laughs at it all the time as i did.
Wants me to play more...
I miss toughs times when i was a child and humor was simpler.
No one complained about , we did things together.
As i remember my grandmother saying about her earlier life..
The good old days..
I now am officially old..lol

As you probably know Cromwell exterminated the people of Drogheda and Wexford and took took land from Catholics and made them move to poor land. No wonder he`s so hated in Irish history. Clearly a much loved guy eh !

@leonaofficial I'm glad Bob Grant killed himself, the talentless unfunny nutter.

when you see the rubbish on tv now and then see this ensemble together it makes you wonder. Why didnt some tv executive just stick them in an OAP home sitcom situation. British TV has sadly been going downhill since circa 1980.

Such legends! Altogether! (Bless Bob Grant) It's such a pity that things fell apart in the actors personal lives and on screen. I still love them all :D xx

I think Bob Grant always had bipolar disorder. The series would have been too out of date in the early 1990s.

On the Buses was an unfunny, racist series.

Unfunny is a matter of opinion but it wasn't racist. I don't know where you got that from.

Actually it was racist. Reg Varney was FAR too old for the part, he'd already had a massive heart attack before it started.
JuanMacready 1 year ago
What's that got to do with it being racist? I honestly can't recall any racism in On the Buses. If you have any specific examples I would be interested to know.
scaryflakybiscuits 1 year ago
There was only a few remarks, such as when striking Stan refers to "you won't find any blacklegs around here..." cue looking at the black bus driver who was also referred to as Chalky. It wasn't errant racism. Back then you had a nickname if you were short, a nickname if you were tall, a nickname if you were coloured. It wasn't spiteful or disrepectful or meant that way. Hence the BBC still show it.

I have enjoyed watching On The Buses from an early age, mainly the 3 films that were made and still watch them now many years later. Harmless, funny British films with great characters and talented actors. Perhaps if ITV (or was it LWT?) had not rejected the idea of a new series then Bob Grant might not have gone into depression and ended his life so soon... I wish they were all still around, but at lest we get to see Aunt Sal on E'enders now & then!

Bob Grant's voice acting was particularly good in the show, as in real life he sounded very posh and a bit like Leslie Phillips.

that was funny when reg said he did not learn all that much from going to the bus depot to see them work, as well as when he mentioned the woman and her husband in the car, who saw the great dane sitting next to reg in the drivers compartment, and the woman said "jesus christ there's a dog driving that bus" ha-ha.

they aren't all dead, Olive and Blakey are still alive. Olive makes an occasional appearence in Eastenders now and then as Peggy Mitchell's sister. Btw are you black, only a black person would find a black man being called chalkie the most racist thing in the world.

Racist? you having a laugh, the most racist thing they had was a black driver called Chalkie. I can think of much much worse shows at that time for racism. Go ask Alf Garnet, i'm sure he'll answer that for you !!
