It was so bad it was BRILLIANT. It should have had an award for the hope it gave single lads, if Stan and Jack could get a woman so easily, there was hope for anyone.

Thank God for ITV3.
The 70,s Sitcoms are good entertainment.
Even for the older generation who can remember them first time round!

Yes, even Chip would get laid in this programme!

Sitcoms are basically shite by default; it wouldn't be fair to single out On the Buses for its badness. Especially with the likes of Love thy Neighbour and Bless this House going on at the same time.
Stephen Lewis played Blakey to perfection. Not his fault the show was moronic.

It was an innocuous piece of late 60's / 70's froth. Harmless and inoffensive, it never hurt anyone

Off topic I guess but just saw the trailer for the Dads Army Film. Some big names in it, hope its as good as the series.
