Driving Mr Clegg....

[Adanor]

He was supposed to stop the car at the edge of the pond. Instead he stepped on the gas and never stopped. Alan focused on what was important and shouted to "Save the camera." The pond was shallow and the car did not sink. I think they ended up actually using that scene.

The other time, Peter was gingerly paddling the canoe with the two others. What nobody knew was that the current was swifter than it looked. If you look carefully at the end of the scene, you can see the canoe start to rock. Then (not filmed) it went over and Peter ended up standing on Bill's head. All three were quickly rescued. They were lucky as it could have gone south.

It was a bus! It was a converted Bedford short wheelbase, single-decker coach chassis with Duple Midland bodywork. It was built in July 1967 at the Willowbrook factory for Greater London Council.
According to the Driver & Vehicle Licencing Agency the current rules state:
Buses you can drive with a full car (category B) licence
You can drive any of the following vehicles known as ‘exempted passenger’ carrying vehicles:
• a bus made more than 30 years before the date it is being driven, and not used for business purposes or for carrying more than 8 passengers.
[...]
Getting Sam Home was broadcast in December 1983, as the bus was only 16 years old Clegg shouldn't have been driving it!

As it had Sam's body on board they could have claimed it as being a hearse if PC Cooper had pulled them over.

@theatrically_inclined your knowledge is incredible, we're so lucky to have you on the site!

I have some interest in vehicles, and my father, mother and step-father all worked in PSV / HGV related occupations!

A clue for another episode if you substituted drive for ride ???

 

[Roger]

If you're including motorbikes then Clegg rides one in Elegy for Small Creature and Clandestine Trackbike.
