Several Carry On films and a number of other British films of the same era featured the black and white coach fleet of Jack Crump.
Maurice Bateman comments: "Jack Crump was indeed a coach operator who traded as Denham Coaches. Although his formal address was at Pinner, Middlesex his 'operating centre' was actually in the grounds of Pinewood Studios! Much of his work entailed taking the production teams on location and of course he provided coaches for filming as required. Additionally for a period he had two ex City of Oxford Regents painted in the Rank Organisation colours which operated a staff service between the Studios and Uxbridge Station. His fleet colours were cream and black although towards the end with the ex Glenton AECs the Glenton colours were retained. So Denham Coaches can be found in many films over the years, often in the background. In the early 70s I had the pleasure of calling on Jack in a professional capacity at the Studios. In those days I worked for Plaxtons!"
