On the Buses: The Canteen Girl (1970)
Season 4, Episode 2
6/10
All the blame, and none of the pleasure.
9 October 2022
Blakey has fallen for canteen worker Molly, so much so that he plans for marry her, and leave the job.

It's got a few laughs, but ultimately wasn't an episode I was crazy about. It was never going to end well for poor old Blakey, and it's an episode where Stan and Jack came across as a couple of snakes. There were a couple of laughs how we, the expressions of the family when they discovered about Molly's earrings, that was funny.

I felt that they could have perhaps developed this story over a few episodes, by developing the new Inspector, he could have made life very difficult for the pair.

Gaye Brown put in a good shift as Molly, she was pretty funny, again it's a shame that she didn't appear in a couple of episodes.

Decent, 6/10.
