Sensitive and heart-warming, The Last Bus tells the story of Tom (actor Timothy Spall). When his beloved wife dies, Tom knows he must fulfil her last wish - to scatter her ashes near the home of both their youth. There's just one small problem: it's almost 1,500 kilometres between that home and where Tom lives now.The retired Tom, who has no great wealth, of course has a free bus pass. But it's only valid on local buses. That means that travelling between Britain's northernmost and southernmost points is only possible with lots of changes. Tom puts on a suit, picks up a suitcase with the essentials and sets off on the most important and crazy journey of his life, where he will not only meet all kinds of people and have many strange and unexpected adventures. With the help of mobile technology, his journey will slowly make national news, engage and enthral many people in Britain and make Tom a true internet sensation.
