On the Buses. (film) On the Buses is a 1971 British comedy film directed by Harry Booth and starring Reg Varney, Doris Hare, Michael Robbins, Anna Karen, Stephen Lewis and Bob Grant. [6] It was the first spin-off film from the TV sitcom On the Buses and was followed by two further films, Mutiny on the Buses (1972) and Holiday on the Buses (1973).
This is just the beginning of a rollicking tale of busmen at work, at play and at love. On The Buses made every bit as successful a transition to the big screen as did Till Death Us Do Part. It became the most popular British film of 1971. Two sequels followed – Mutiny on the Buses (1972) and Holiday on the Buses (1973).
It would go on to be one of the most financially successful films of 1971, proving you could make millions from a very cheap budget. As for the film itself, it’s incredibly outdated, sexist and totally ridiculous. Stan and Jack have been securing a hefty amount of overtime recently thanks to the lack of available staff at the bus depot.
