The Damned United

(2009, Michael Sheen, Timothy Spall, Colm Meaney)

Controversial movie about controversial football manager Brian Clough includes cameos by two preserved coaches. 5188RU was new to Excelsior of Bournemouth in 1963. It's a Bedford VAL14 with Plaxton bodywork, which spent some years in this livery with West Wight Coaches on the Isle of Wight and went on to be superbly preserved by Johnson's of Hodthorpe.

VUB396H is a 1970 Leyland Leopard, also Plaxton bodied, now preserved in the livery of Wallace Arnold, its original owner:
