Is Reg varney really 91?
I've just been watching the film "Holiday on the buses" and decided to read up on the characters.
On the IMDB website, it states the leading actor, Reg Varney, who played Stan Butler was born in 1916. This would have made him aged 57 at the time of filming (1973), 20 years older than Stephen Lewis, who played Inspector Blakey.
Either Reg Varney ages very slowly, as he looked alot younger than Stephen Lewis, or there is an error in his date of birth. Does anyone know if 1916, is his correct year of birth?

Stephen Lewis was born in 1936, so as you say Lewis is 20 years older than Varney. I think Lewis just has an unfortunate face and exaggerates it.
By the way, Varney is quite an accomplished singer and pianist:

>I guess he just looked young for his age.
I never thought he looked young in On the Buses. He looked like what he was, a 50 year old bloke.
I found it rather sordid, this middle aged man chatting up all the dolly birds.
Mind you I always thought On the buses one of WORST comedy shows even seen, certainly considering its so-called reputation.
