  • The unused outtakes from the making of a training video by the training school of Brighton and Hove buses c.1988. Uploaded especially for members of the Facebook group 'Brighton buses past and present'.
    I have tried to remove the 'Miami Vice' music using the RUclips video editor but without success as the process doesn't complete.
    The picture and sound quality is pretty variable and poor in places, as can be expected from a VHS tape over 25 years old, so apologies for this.

    As a life long resident of Brighton & hove this has brought back some memories. Nearly all the banks are now restaurants or coffee shops of sone sort.

    Thanks for posting this it gives a real feel of how Brighton was back in the 1980s. I was in Essex at the time and moved down to Sussex just after 2000 . Some Things certainly seemed to have changed .

    The year I passed my test and was driving around in a red, hatch back chevette . Easier to pass and drive around back then . Less cars on the road etc. Brings back great memories. Thanks

    Omg that lighting shop near Bankers looked exactly the same for over 20 years! You could sort of tell though.

      Even in 1988 it was having a "closing down" sale...

    Amazing video, mate. I would have been a young kid at the time.
    It so funny to look at this and think that Brighton hasn't changed that much in 26 years. The only thing different really is the cars and the shops!

    I started work with Brighton & Hove Buses in Conway Street Hove and drove many of these buses. My favourite route was the 60 Mile Oak Shuttle limited stop 😎

      Not only do I remember the busy bee, I was one of the first driver on its inauguration day. Mercedes mini bus with a manual gearbox.

    It's amazing how much some stuff has changed and other stuff is familiar. And not a Hi-Viz in sight!

    It's weird seeing Moulsecoomb Way before the leisure centre was built, I do remember it being that way. I also remember seeing the bottom of the road before the traffic lights were installed. I used to live just past the viaduct, I grew up in Ringmer Road opposite St George's hall.

    PS. At 1:25, the building on across the road from the Wick Inn (which still has the same name) is just the same as it was then. Vacant with scaffold. Really, am I in a time warp?
    Amazing that the same buildings keep having occupant difficulties even then and now!

      It’s only 32 years ago. Some of the old people might be dead but most of the others are probably alive and kicking.

    No wonder bus drivers were so bad if this was the level of instruction!
