Tv Theme On The Buses (Full Theme) Tony Russell

[@yogaclara]

Tony Russell was my dad, he wrote The Herbs as well. Nice to know he is still remembered, he died back in 1970. Be interested to hear if you are a long lost relative!

[@zoranpopovic2382]

Obviously the man walked in music. This theme is beautiful

[@tyrannicalmoney]

That's amazing

[@marilynfox6838]

Where might we find more of his music?

[@TSeedAssociates]

Did you know that posting this meant we found our lost brother' he contacted us 7 years ago asking if yhe composer was Tony Russell and if anyone knew this and him- my sister Claire picked up the message see below which started a conversation taht led to an incredible meeting and amazing few years of relationship. Our brother then died, it was a shock and extemely sad, but if you had never posted this we would never had found him so thankyou

[@southamptongayguy]

As a bus driver this series was excellent,what we used to get away with then,sad those days are gone!

[@hermioneswinson]

I actually wanna go on some of the old buses they look amazing and do much fun so I would love to ride in one

[@CaffeinatedMoustache]

@@hermioneswinson One thing to warn you about, loud and bumpy

[@hermioneswinson]

@@CaffeinatedMoustache I'm not bothered about that

[@CaffeinatedMoustache]

[@mistalongname4674]

I’m 22 and very enjoy this programme

[@user-ro2nq7gp9l]

This song was playing in my head all day, and I had to be certain, it was from this program.

[@raymondsearch5289]

This tune puts an instant smile on my face!! Memories of Stan and Jack down at the depot. The BEST of times!!!

[@bagpuss121]

This Was A Fucking Fantastic Series One Of My Favourites .......

[@Dimondgamer123]

This just reminds me of my grandma and grandad what An amazing show

[@OlivetheRescueCat]

Me too because my Grandad and Grandma were called Stan and Olive. Now I have 2 cats called Stan and Olive.

[@Ben-xe8ps]

The first tune is season 1 of On The Busses as it still has Cicely Courtneidge playing Stan's mum rather than Doris Hare who played her in all of the later seasons and the 3 movies. The theme tune changed and I think improved for the later seasons.

[@nicholasjones9705]

”The TalkSPORT clips of the week”.

[@tracynottage356]

Nice to hear all the theme tune, I like it, nice one 👍

[@mikeknight.1]

wonderful tune for On the Buses.

[@dhtelevision]

My #1 favourite British comedy ever!!

[@jgdsgh]

On The Buses:ITV's best sitcom since 1969

[@treenut999]

Love Clips of The Week :) on Hawksee and Jacobs talkSPORT show :) LOVE this song :)

[@Conekat-1763]

Love this show, inspired me to be a bus conductor myself thanks to jack, I was born in the wrong generation I tell you!

[@Kittonkitkat]

Recently got a job as a bus driver and my mate sent me this. Oh the memories. They don't make shows like this anymore! X

[@tylsimys67]

Maybe the most popular series in Finland in the 70's along with All in the Family.

[@arthurvasey]

Cicely Courtneidge played the mum in the first season - note that, in the black and white title sequence, Anna Karen’s name is misspelt Anna Karan!

[@juliesmith5567]

I love this as i have a collection of all dvds watch them and more on tv though

[@ACNC1]

good tea and biscuit music.

[@wakkowarner2572]

Only Olive, Jack and Blakey were there during the whole series.

[@poughkeepsiejohn1]

In the early 1970's, Carl Reiner tried to adapt this series into an American sit-com called "Lotsa Luck!" which starred Dom DeLuise and Kathleen Freeman. It only lasted a year.

[@ggagg123]

Loved on the buses! Still very funny today!

[@smasherhits]

Ya and RIP Reg Varney, Michael Robbins and Doris Hare

[@scousertom0388]

"I 'ate you, Butler, 'ate ya!"

[@tyrannicalmoney]

Its the best sitcom ever on the buses

[@jgdsgh]

One of my dad's favourites along side Some Mother's Do Ave Em and Fawlty Towers

[@tonybudgie8103]

That Tune Is Awesome And My Favourite I Prefer This Tune To The Other Ones!!!!

[@chrislake1967]

I work with old bus drivers and they say its so true.

[@dramaticguy]

@MultiTVThemes Doris Hare wasn't available for series1 but as soon as she was available,she took on the role.

[@benjaminoliver7567]

Olive's the only one still alive I think.

[@memyself1566]

Not now! She died in a house fire in Ilford, Essex, in February 2022 (this year). The exact day was the 22nd of February. She was 85 years of age and was born in Durban, South Africa. She came to the UK in 1953 - hard to believe all that time ago.

Just like the Doctor In The House theme, the original On the Buses theme song was a bit slower.

It's a slower theme, than the later seasons
