On the Buses (film)
''On the Buses'' is a 1971 British comedy film directed by Harry Booth and starring Reg Varney and Doris Hare. The film is the first spin-off film from the TV sitcom ''On the Buses'' and was followed by two further films ''Mutiny on the Buses'' (1972) and ''Holiday on the Buses'' (1973). The films are set within a slightly different canon from the TV series - Stan and Jack work for a different bus company (Town & District instead of Luxton & District), and the three films form a loose story arc where Arthur and Olive become parents (despite their apparently sexless marriage).
The film was produced by Ronald Chesney and Ronald Wolfe for Hammer Films, and enjoyed major success in Britain, outdoing ''Diamonds Are Forever'' to become the highest performing film of 1971, though that film was not released until December 1971.〔http://www.onthebusesfanclub.com/id48.html〕
==Synopsis==
Bus driver Stan (Reg Varney) cannot afford the payments on a new washing machine or other expensive items his Mum and sister have bought on hire purchase. His overtime earnings have been cut because the bus company has decided to revoke a long-standing rule and employ women bus drivers. Worried at the thought of no overtime, and therefore less wages, he joins forces with his longtime colleague Jack (Bob Grant) to sabotage the new female employees. Meanwhile, just as his sister Olive (Anna Karen) starts working in the canteen, she discovers that she's expecting a baby. A sub plot explores Olive's journey to hospital while in labour in a motorcycle side car and the domestic disturbance the baby brings. Another sub plot explores Stan and Jack's amorous adventures. Stan flees a jealous husband in his bus and demolishes a telephone kiosk and bus shelter in the process. As a result, he is forced to undertake a driving test on a bus skid pan.
Stan and Jack join forces to sabotage the new female employees and get back their overtime. They place fake diversion signs along their routes in order to get them into trouble for running behind schedule. Then they put diuretic in the female bus drivers tea causing them to make frequent loo stops, then terrify them by putting spiders on their buses. Eventually the women resign but Blakey (Stephen Lewis) the bus inspector finally rehires them as assistant inspectors.
