This is a two hour film shot in real time from cameras on the No 830 Dalesman bus running between Richmond and Ingleton. There is no commentary and no background music. Four million people watched it when it was shown on Monday evening! If you don't want to watch it all, fast forward to 31 minutes in where the bus reaches Reeth and watch the next hour as the bus goes over Buttertubs pass on its way to Hawes. I can't make the run but watching the programme has made me determined to do the run one day.
