Starring Reg Varney, Bob Grant, Doris Hare, Anna Karen, Stephen Lewis, Michael Robbins, Andrea Lawrence, Pat Ashton, Brian Oulton, Pamela Cundell, Pat Coombs, Wendy Richard, Peter Madden and David Lodge. The most popular box-office film in the U.K. for 1971 was this feature-length spin-off from the popular 1970s ITV television series about the antics of drivers and clippies at a Home Counties bus depot. All of the original cast members return; Reg Varney and Bob Grant reprise their roles as the oversexed middle-aged driver and his conductor, Stephen Lewis as the grimly laughing Inspector; and Anna Karen and Michael Robbins as bespectacled Olive and her undersexed husband.

Stan Butler (Reg Varney) and the rest of the lads at the bus depot are horrified when the town and district bus company, and the constant thorn in their side, Inspector Blakey (Stephen Lewis), decide to hire women drivers due to staff shortages. Stan relies on his overtime to afford his mother's many white goods bought on the never never, and into the bargain his sister Olive is pregnant and unable to work in the bus canteen. Together with his lecherous conductor Jack (Bob Grant), the pair wastes no time in trying to overturn the new company policy and get the new recruits dismissed with a series of mischievous practical jokes.
