Synopsis

Not one, not two, but three full length film spin-offs from the sitcom ON THE BUSES are collected here for a triple dose of classic comedy. In ON THE BUSES Jack and Stan have to deal with the threat of women bus drivers. MUTINY ON THE BUSES sees Stan's brother-in-law Arthur become a bus driver with disastrous results. Finally, HOLIDAY ON THE BUSES finds Stan and Jack sacked from the bus company. Things look up when they find new jobs in a holiday camp, only to discover their old nemesis Blakey has also been installed as head of security.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolute Classic, 4 May 2005
The on the buses films are fantastic i have watched them many times and still dont get fed up, i know whats coming and they still make me laugh every time. It captures an era of time which was when some of the best comedys were made around. Holiday on the buses is my favourite, that is a typical holiday camp of that day and age and the way they wreck the chalet with one thing and another, oh its great! Think i will go and watch them again!

5.0 out of 5 stars Comedy gold!, 1 May 2005
By Freddie Valentine "lordfreddievalentine" (Berkshire) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
If you are a fan of the tv series then you will no doubt be aware of how good these three films are.
Classic British comedy at it's best. This double DVD has two discs containing the trilogy of films released in the 70's.
All the characters from the great tv show are there as well as some appearances from comedy greats such as Arthur Mullard, Wilfred Brambell and Kate Williams.
Lots of laughs ot be had here and great value for money.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well Worth the Buy, 9 Nov 2003
By M. D. Hart "Boz Phiz @ DVD" (London) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
Embarassing to say and undoubtedly hard to believe that I began watching 'On the Buses' when I was young because I wanted to be a bus driver when I got older......Obviously my career goals have now changed somewhat :) but my interest in this collection hasn't. These three films are yet another testimony to the astonishing popularity of British cinema throughout the 60s and 70s, right up to the present day.

Collectively these are fantastic films; uniquely we have a proverbial 'egg-timer' shaped progression........'On The Buses' is brilliant; the classic plot of men vs women is hilarious, especially when the women find spiders in the bus........'Mutiny On The Buses' is the worst of the three. It lacks any real similarity to the Television Series, which is a great shame. 'Holiday On The Buses' was the last film made and was made in the final year of the'On The Buses' franchise. It follows the characters on a Summer Holiday at Pontins they Stan and Jack (the main characters, and 'Blakey') have been fired. Not as good as the first film but an exceptional improvement on the second.

As with any other sitcom, whether it is on TV or a big-screen spin off, what relates people to it is the characters. The Butler family, Jack Harper and Inspector Blake are some of the most famous characters of 70s television. Brilliant acting by all concerned plus some surprisingly well thought out plotlines make for fantastic family viewing.

It is not before time that this has been released on DVD......buy it. ALSO, I have been very lucky to collect all of the TVseries episodes available, and I would suggest you consider buying those as well......they really are testament to a fantastic Sitcom of a past, but much loved era
