(To the World's End: Scenes and Characters on a London Bus Route)

I found it really interesting and although Haringey is not featured in it, its really cool to see the old buses in action, old shopfronts and in general how London was in the 80s.

First transmitted in 1985, To the World's End follows the No. 31 London bus from Camden Town to World's End, Chelsea, meeting characters who live and work along the route.

If anyone watches it let me know what you think.

Thanks Peter, I will watch it later. Have you seen any of the other programmes in BBC4's London Collection?

Great! and yes I've watched most of them, but this one really grabbed me particularly the ending and the theme tune playing throughout.

Something along the same lines was on the TV tonight; characters on the 29 night bus to Wood Green.
