Buses on TV

[Bob]

Yea considering kings oak was set just outside brum there weren't many west midlands or brummie accents in it lol that goes for both the original and later series. Anyone remember a character called mavis hooper from the original inthe early 80s? TTerrible attempt at a dodgy brummie accent lol

I remember watching the ITV News, a female reporter was reporting about something outside the Grand Theatre. I saw a Walsall B6 drove past, I was a bit sad to rewind and try to decipher which bus fleet number was it and I knew it was 333, because only Walsall B6s used to go down that road. It was S648 VOA, on 333.

I have no interest in this thread, but think it should be limited to West Mids buses only, otherwise, otherwise there's really an infinite number of bus sightings on TV...

Try again... does anyone have any constructive feedback? If this thread is to continue (it's clutching at straws a little), I recommend it should be West Mids related sightings only.

Just ignore the thread if you don't like it (mark it as read without reading it). As far as I knew LS was the only other moderator

I remember a brum episode with a Fleetline going past on Broad Street. I am also pretty sure on the same episode 1956 could be seen on the other side probably on the 103 route when at Quinton.

Several years ago I filmed a travelcard advert driving an empty Metrobus around the 52 (now 952) loop at the terminus. The magic of television meant there was passengers on when the advert was finished.
