On the Buses (1971)
Director: Harry Booth
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Dire spin-off from the stultifyingly unfunny TV series, with the lads at the local bus depot peeved to find women being brought in as drivers, and cracking a lot of awful sexist jokes as a result. Just to add to the insult, the film is extraordinarily badly made: flat, paceless and technically shoddy.Author: GA
