The Country Bus BBC4

[fourquenelles]

I am watching this now and it is mesmerising. Real time bus journey across the Dales from east to west. No background music,no voice over. Stunning scenery. A zen like experience in my front room.

BBC4 have done a few of these slow tv things haven't they? I'm surprised they're not more popular tbh.

Loving it as well, making me peaceful for the first time today. I guess it is following on from the Xmas sled one in Alaska I think it was. Husband says they should have titled it "an evening with postman pat"

[fourquenelles]

Your husband is right danny .

Ive just had the remote wrestled off me and dp turned it over.

He says it's not an authentic bus trip. You can't smell the puss and there's no juddering and lurching causing you to bump into the person sat next to you

[fourquenelles]

Majestic LTB!

[PitchFork]

did you mean to write 'piss' or 'bus'? :o
it's great, almost hypnotising.

I love these type of programmes. Missed the sleding one but we watched the glass blowing/sword making ones which had a similar style.

It's almost making me feel a bit travel sick

[topcat2014]

I would like it to face forwards all the time though. Like Miracle says, sideways viewing is making me sick.

I would like to have seen the sleigh ride one though.

[blamethecat]

I imagine it is pretty cheap to make ? It does look like a nice new bus though.

I love that there's a thread about this! We came across this programme , so surprised there was a whole 2 hours of bus journey with no sound! It was really funny. But it was a bit hypnotising watching it!
