  • Celebrating the wonderful Doris Hare, mum in the three classic On the Buses films and most of the TV series too. In the video, On the Buses star, Reg Varney is joined by actors Stephen Lewis, Anna Karen and Andria Lawrence, writers Ronalds Chesney and Wolfe, 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.

    Mabel Butler (mum) was a brilliant character. She really kept the family together and was a key part of the show.

    Reg Varney was born in 1916 so he was almost in his mid 50s when the series began in 1968. Doris Hare, who played Mabel Butler, was born in 1905 and was just 11 years older than
    Reg Varney, when she played his mum.

    What a fantastic history of so many talented people. So sad to know that many of them are not with us today. I believe that they began in 1968 - London was still swinging when they filmed the first TV series. Modern History can be so fascinating.

    I really did accept Doris Hare as Stan and Olives mum. Amazing woman and acting skills.

    on the buses is as close to a play as you will find on tv especially when they are eating at the table with real food.

      Reg Varney was actually 53 when he started playing Stan. As far as I know, Stan was supposed to be in his early 40s.

      In that case, if my arithmetic is accurate, he was born in 1916 - hard to believe that he was that old when he started to become well-known to the general public. Show business is a funny occupation - sometimes it breaks people.

      Yes, in fact in real life there was only an 11yr age gap between Doris and Reg. Doris being born in 1905 and Reg 1916. They platonically loved each other dearly in real life too 💙💖

    Doris Hare was born and grew up in Bargoed (Bar-goyd), a former mining town in South Wales, near Caerphilly and Cardiff. I filmed the whole of Bargoed Town centre if you want to see to town where she lived check out the video on my channel.
