The husband of one of our church members at St John's Seven Kings, Tom Mckerr, has been driving the number 25 for the past two years and features in the BBC2 documentary Route Masters. He said that at first he did not want to be included on the documentary and it was only when he gave the film crew a lift home he ended up being included. He said often when people cannot pay, or do not want to, they become abusive. “I have been threatened and spat at many times, with threats to beat me up and stab me. I’ve been sworn at in a number of languages but it’s just a minority. “It’s nice when the public are leaving the bus and say ‘thank you driver’,” he added. “It makes you feel good when they acknowledge you.”
