- With new and exclusive interviews, we celebrate the hugely talented and hugely popular, Reg Varney, star of the classic comedy, On the Buses, which reached 74 TV episodes and three feature films.
Reg is joined by former cast members Anna Karen, Stephen Lewis and Andria Lawrence, as well as writers Ronalds Chesney and Wolfe, production supervisor Roy Skeggs, Hammer runners Brian Reynolds and Phil Campbell, On the Buses Fan Club organiser Steve Luxton and film historian, Morris Bright MBE.
These interviews are part of our recent feature length documentary On the Buses at the Movies that celebrates the 50th anniversaries of the classic British comedy film series, On the Buses, Mutiny on the Buses and Holiday On the Buses. The documentary goes behind the scenes, looks at the making of the films and reflects on the their enduring appeal.
Special thanks to Morris Bright MBE for allowing us access to his archive interviews with Anna, Reg, Stephen, Roy and the two Ronnies that were recorded in 2002.
Hope you enjoy it. - Розваги
What a lovely and humble man Reg was. Love him
Something heart warming in 70's comedy, used watch it with my Nan and Grandad, all Cockney humour only UK could get ...its our own London period. Gone.
When Reg left On The Buses that was it for me. He was a brilliant actor and made the part very believable. Love Him ❤️
There are actually only 6 episodes without Reg/Stan (The final half of series 7) and 3 of those 6 are just as good as any other :-)
I dint like it that much when Arthur left
Reg was given word of the show when he was in Australia, I believe, and he immediately took it upon himself to learn how to drive a bus. Clever guy.
Love reg great actor sadly missed by many fans
For me, it is beyond such a shame that Bob Grant who played Jack Harper could not find regular work after this gem of a series ended. Even Stephen Lewis (Blakey) worked in programmes such at Last of the Summer Wine after On the Buses. Bob Grants posh accent could have been off set the Compo character (Bill Owen) for example. Still hard to deal with the death of Anna Karen in a house fire too.
What a gem Reg was . Just brilliant . Not one of these so called comedies nowadays could touch On the Buses .
You just can't beat BRITISH COMEDY NO OFFENSE AT ALL, BUT IT'S TRUE GOD BLESS THEM ALL IN HEAVEN TAKING THE BUS NO. 11 TO THE CEMENTERY GATES XXX XXX XXX
great actor and a great man.
Lovely to see this!
However, Michael Robbins actually left the show before Reg to concentrate on stage roles, and there was only half a series, the final one without Reg/Stan.
Loved on the. Buses so does my disabled son
It was good fun and it's still popular in 2022, despite what woke people may say!
Grew up watching this as a kid, very popular here in Australia. Have the box set of DVD'S and rewatch it at least once a year.
Who cares what the woke people think. I am addicted to on the buses.
Love On The Buses television show and all of the actors.
Reg is Brilliant !
There will never be another show as funny as this. RIP all the main cast, gone not forgotten xx
Great actor sadly missed
These documentaries are excellent.
they should rerun the series of On The Buses
That Steve Luxton from the fan club is deffo on THE register, he needs his hard drive checking out.
Right so you know this????
I will get you Butler!!
Reg left On The Buses to have a rest before doing the last film
Thanks for sharing really enjoyed that.
What a great insight. Thank you so much
I'd love to have a go at driving a bus
I've never seen any of there films where can i view it
Just a thought… let’s just say David Jason hadn’t played Del Boy I wonder if Reg could have played it.. I understand that time lines and age would not have lined up but I’m sure Reg would have been a great Del Boy!!!
😎😎😎😎👍
Yeah I thought series 7 of On the Buses kind of sucked but I mostly really enjoyed the first 6 series.
It was a shame Reg left the show.
@@johnseven3695 Yeah it was.
Reg Varney first man to use an ATM in real life he and jack were were always pulling the clippies not surprising really a right pair of handsome buggers 🤢🤮
Reg sure had a thick cockney accent but i could catch 3/4 of things he said
Bob Grant made on the buses followed by Michael Robbins
Old meat and veg Varney.
i wasnt keen on stan he was very cocky just cos he was the driver he thought he knew everything. didnt like his attitude. my uncle knew him in real life and said reg was very rude to people if the camera wasnt on i loved on the buses but really enjoyed the last few without reg the charcters seemed to relax more love the movies the bigger man when reg was skidding in the movie on the water was the real man who trained my daddy who was a driver for 42 years i loved holiday on the buses it is my favourite of the 3 movies
A lot more people used buses in those days. They could relate easier to the situation.
