On the Buses	comment	On the Buses is a 1971 film and the first film spin-off of On the Buses. It stars Reg Varney, Doris Hare, Michael Robbins, Anna Karen, Stephen Lewis, and Bob Grant.Stan Butler (Varney) and Jack Harper (Grant), a bus driver and conductor for the Town & District bus company, lose their overtime when the bus company allows women to work as bus drivers. Because Stan's mum, Mabel (Hare), has made so many expensive purchases, the Butler family is tight on money.Stan's sister, Oliver Rudge (Karen) takes up a job for the bus company's canteen to earn some extra cash, but she cannot continue working once she and her lazy husband, Arthur (Robbins), discover that she is pregnant. Stan is strapped for cash and desperate to get his overtime back, so he and Jack go behind the back of their Inspector, the officious Cyril "Blakey" Blake (Lewis) to get the women drivers sacked as Hilarity Ensues.The film was followed by Mutiny on the Buses in 1972 and Holiday on the Buses in 1973.

On the Buses / int_d9cf40fa	comment	Screw This, I'm Outta Here: Stan and Jack's initial reaction to discovering that the women drivers have now been promoted to inspectors, only for it to be almost instantly averted when Stan meets Sandra, his pretty new clippie.

On the Buses / int_e43130c1	type	Interrupted Intimacy
On the Buses / int_e43130c1	comment	Interrupted Intimacy: Jack and Betty are in bed together, and plan to have it off again, until Jack sees Blakey is outside her house and he has to cut their tryst short as he is running late to return to work. Stan and Bridget's night of passion on the sofa is cut short by Olive coming downstairs for her knitting, which makes Bridget think that a pregnant woman interrupting her was a message from the Lord Himself to get her to stop her sinning. When Betty tries to seduce Stan, she doesn't get very far as he has to make a quick escape when her husband comes home. Stan's night with Sally is ended by the other bus drivers who don't approve of fraternising with the female bus drivers who are taking away their overtime money.

On the Buses / int_eaf5a1ac	comment	Groin Attack: After Stan traps Vera in her cab, she and some of the other female bus drivers get back at him by sticking an air hose up his trouser leg and turning it on several times, causing lots of pain to his privates.

This causes Stan and Jack to laugh when they catch sight of her pink knickers, which Jack calls a "right pair of passion killers".
