This is the elephant in the room in 'On the Buses' - why would Jack and Stan get all the 'birds' when they are clearly some 10-20 years their senior and not exactly in great shape! This is actually tackled head on in one episode ('Dangerous Driving' I think) when a younger Luxton employee asks Stan's date why she'd want to hang around with these old buggers anyway (or words to the affect) but he is promptly sent away with a flea in his ear! In my experience, it's best not to ponder on it too much
'On the Buses' is my favourite sitcom by some distance and I love all three films. 'Holiday on the Buses' feels the most complete of the OTB films and is one of my favourite comedies of all time
