From photos i've seen and the 'what's on this series' bit at the start of episode 1, one of them is in a Northern Counties bodied Leyland Olympian, 1 has a Plaxton Pointer bodied Dennis Dart and the other has what must be an ex-south yorkshire pte Leyland DAB bendibus.

I thought it was poor, i was hoping more of the truck drivers tests but not to be.
The Olympian looked good and i was suprised how long it lasted on 3 Wheels!
I was hoping that the dart would loose or atleast the Optare beat it but that was not to be.
Was still a bundle of laughs though.

What an absolute waste of time. Just shows what those idiots think of public transport.

I thought it was ok, but would of rather all 3 presenters took part in a series of challenges like the truck driver tests, where for example they each had to buy a Bus and paint it up, and then take on challenges. Maybe next time!

There is another, unseen on TV, clip on the Top Gear website. Not that exciting, just shows Richard talking about and driving his bendy-bus. You do get to see the buses revving up at the start though. www.topgear.com/uk/videos/on-the-buses
