Starting on a green bus in Leeds and culminating atop the number 94 as it speeds towards Trafalgar Square, in Great British Bus Journeys David McKie travels to some of Britain's most unfashionable and unfamous places - using the least reliable method of transport! From the Forest of Bowland to Bradwell-on-Sea via a white-knuckle ride on the Glasgow night bus, Great British Bus Journeys offers a unique tour rich with history, legend and personality.
