The Last Bus

Synopsis

An old man crosses the country just using local buses...The heart-warming tale of a man whose wife has just passed away - who uses his free local bus pass to travel to the other end of the UK, to a place the pair originally moved from, using only local buses. A nostalgic trip, "taking her back" by carrying his wife’s ashes in a small suitcase, the man meets local people along the way, and by the end is a celebrity.
