Trivia

This was originally scheduled to be shown, under the title "Jane Hall's Big Red Bus Ride", beginning in July 2005. However it was postponed for a year and given a more innocuous title, after the 7 July 2005 terrorist bombings in London, one of which killed many people on a red London bus. See more »
