Is On the Buses coming back?

On the Buses ended on 20 May 1973 on ITV1. The show concluded after its seventh season, which aired from February 2, 1973, to May 20, 1973. It was a popular comedy series that ran for several years and remains a notable part of British television history.

The series was a sitcom centered around Stan Butler, a bus driver working for the Luxton & District Bus Company. It depicted his daily life and interactions with his overbearing mother, his frumpy sister Olive, and his lazy brother-in-law Arthur. Much of the humor arose from Stan and his conductor Jack, who often flirted with female staff, while dealing with the constant oversight of Inspector 'Blakey' Blake, who frequently threatened to fire them for lateness and untidiness. The show was set in the 1960s and early 1970s and focused on the humorous side of working-class life.

The cast included Reg Varney as Stan Butler, Anna Karen as Olive Rudge, Bob Grant as Jack Harper, Doris Hare and Cicely Courtneidge as their mother, and Stephen Lewis as Inspector Blake. The series was rated 7.5 on TVMaze and had a runtime of 30 minutes per episode.
