Hello fellow passengers,
Hope you all had a good Christmas and New Year.
17 YEARS OF THE FAN CLUB
Who would have thought it, this month (Jan) marks the 17th year of the official ON
THE BUSES fan club, in those days of just producing the fan club mag after Phil and Nick stept down. To setting up the web
site having a facebook page with Carl. Interviewing some of the cast members including Reg Varney for the South Bank Show
Special '50 Years of ITV', going to events including of course our events. What a journey it has been! But none of
this would have been possible or we could not have kept going without YOU THE FANS. So a big THANK YOU! to you all.
ROY SKEGGSS (April 1934 – 29 December 2018)
It is with sadness I have to let you know that Roy Skeggs has passed away. Roy worked at Elstree Studios and was latterly
chairman of Hammer films, based in Elstree. Roy Skeggs was a producer for Hammer Film Productions and worked on several film
projects as well as the television programs Hammer House of Horror and Hammer House of Mystery and Suspense. He was Production
Supervisor on all 3 of the ON THE BUSES movies. I only met him a few times but he had a long career in film and TV and also
did shows like The Best of Benny Hill. R.I.P Roy
