      @James Henderson if its racist then they would only allow certain races to watch it. They woukdnt cast them either. In a predominantly white country they were having jokes just like other countrys do to minorities back then it didnt mean they hated them and it went both ways with humour. Most people could take a light hearted joke unlike the pure hatred towards anyone who wants a harmless joke nowadays. There is a huge difference between light humour and pure evil racism which clearly you dont see.

      The world's first "hole in the wall" was unveiled at Barclays bank in Enfield, north London, on June 27 1967.
      As a tribute to the golden anniversary, Barclays has transformed the modern-day ATM into gold.
      The invention was the brainchild of John Shepherd-Baron, who Barclays commissioned to create six cash dispensers.
      On the Buses TV sitcom actor Reg Varney was the star of the opening and the first person to use the state-of-the-art invention.

    Reg was also the first person in the UK to use a bank ATM cash machine in Enfield when they were first introduced; Barclays Bank I think it was that used Reg to promo their new service.

    Being from Canada and from a modern age; I often watch these kinds of things. I can tell you about stars of the 70's + 80's in the USA + UK and even France (I'm French-Canadian from a family dynasty going back 143 years in Canada/France) Nothing brings me more joy than watching shows like On The Buses/Only Fools and Horses/Upstairs Downstairs over your neck of the woods. I've even got a thing for Inspector Morse in the late 80's/early 90's although I ordered some episodes of Lewis I found it too 'box ticking/cultural marxist' for my liking. British comedy is hilarious. French is more philosophical (I won't go into your sworn enemies and their shows LOL) and whimsical. The USA: Oh god: I could go on about Robert Conrad, Barbara Parkins, Jacyln Smith, Karen Grassle, Peter Falk, etc. I'm obsessed with 70's and 80's stuff. My point: I wish you'd get back to this instead of BOX TICKING. How far our society has fallen :(

      You are absolutely spot-on with the cultural Marxist stuff it's absolutely terrible and is destroying the West.

    Every time I get the underground to Stratford and I go through Canning Town, I always think of Reg Varney. Wasn’t he great giving out the books to those children?👍🏻

      Yes, it is sad. He lived a long good life though mate, 97, is a long life. I would have liked to have met him myself. We will meet him in the next realm. There is no comedy actor as good as Reg. not in my eyes anyway, And most certainly not in these days, the only one that comes close is Benny Hill. Can't beat the old 70s, 80s British comedies. On The Buses and The Benny Hill Show you just can't beat them.

      I was watching On The Buses the other day as a tribute, I have them all on DVD There is only Anna Karen left out the cast now. I wonder where his funeral is?

    • @stuartpattison1576
      @stuartpattison1576 9 років тому

      ***** Yeah, I know. She never done much since On The Buses. she done the odd appearance in Eastenders, that's about it isn't it?

      +stuart pattison Anna Karen is now 79 and was the staff of Brewer's Drama Academy in Essex. As far as I know she is still an examiner for New Era Academy Exams Board in Speech & Drama which has a distinguished 75 year history. She appeared as Peggy Mitchell's sister in Eastenders sporadically from 1996 onwards. She trained for 3 years at the South African National Theatre and has a huge range of theatre roles to her credit . She was touring with productions well into the early 2000s. Yes she was both a model and a stripper at the Panama Club London when she arrived in the UK. I guess that makes it even more surprising that her most famous TV role was as dowdy Olive. All the best.
