'Dancing On The Edge', a new drama by Stephen Poliakoff set in the 1930's begins on BBC2 on the 4th February 2013. 'Ermintrude', our 1929 bus, was used in two of the scenes which were shot near Croydon (in December 2011) and Whitehall (in February 2012).
Ermintrude provides the transport for the band and the stars include Chiwetel Ejiofor, Matthew Goode, Anthony Head, Caroline Quentin, Mel Smith, Jacqueline Bisset and Jane Asher, Joanna Vanderham, Angel Coulby and Janet Montgomery. Needless to say, we saw hardly any of the stars while making our bit!

Oddly enough, Ermintrude's previous film role was also in a film that included 'Dance' in its title - A Dance To The Music Of Time.
