Radio 4 Saturday 28/8 10.30a.m.: Routemasters
 

"Hold on Tight, Please
As the Routemaster bus reaches its 50th birthday, and is
now being phased out in London, Linda Smith hops on board
the nation's beloved double decker to celebrate its
colourful life and times. Recalling her own fond memories
of this very British icon, she talks to conductors, drivers,
and enthusiasts, and discovers how the bus has inspired
people, starred on screen, travelled the world, symbolised
peace, and found many surprising new uses."
