If plate is YJ65ERG, it's a fake and also appears on the green/yellow similar. |

Could it possibly be the same bus digitally coloured blue? If so, I suspect the same thing was done to the grey and green double-decker to create the grey and blue one. |

If either bus is a digital re-colour, they've done it very well - the sequences look perfectly normal with natural-looking shadow and lighting. |

I know nothing about that sort of thing, though it’s the only explanation I can think of. |

I'm now convinced by the digital re-colouring theory - it explains the recurring plates and the clincher was comparing the rear photos of the grey/green Dennis double-decker (main) versus the grey/blue (5th thumb) - everything apart from colour matches exactly, including the route number stuck halfway between 1_A and 1_B. So this blue Optare is reworked from the genuine green/yellow YJ65ERO, and the green/green may be as well. The explanation is probably claims seen online that the production budget was very limited, and with filming probably constrained by Covid restrictions, they had to resort to technical smoke and mirrors to camouflage the gaps. But they've done it very well - looking again at the clips, it's impossible to tell, as the light and shadow effects are thoroughly convincing, even when looking for witchcraft clues. As each appearance has a separate role during the film with its sequence of different journeys and the viewer would see each appearance as a distinct and self-contained sighting in its own right, I'm not merging the pages. |
