Possibly reaching peak nerdiness here, but Jack Crump-Denham Coaches was a bus company that was situated either adjacent to, or actually within, the grounds of Pinewood Studios. As well as providing transport for cast and crew to locations, the company also supplied buses for on-screen use.
So, any time the plot called for a works outing, a trip to a nightmarish foreign resort or school camp, a Jack Crump coach was called upon.
Two films in which the coaches featured prominently were the cinema adaptation of Please Sir, and Carry On at Your Convenience, both from 1971. In Please Sir, a Jack Crump coach drove the anarchic class 5C from Fenn Street Secondary Modern to a rural camp, driven for the purposes of the story by Jack Smethurst. In Carry On at Your Convenience, it was a trip to Brighton for the WC Boggs and Son works outing.
There's actually very little available information about Jack Crump himself or his company, aside from fragments scattered through various vintage bus enthusiast sites. He remains a fascinating footnote to British cinema history.

Over on twitter, @V_Musings shared a one minute clip from the British Film Institute’s October 2nd event memorializing Alan Rickman.
In this clip, Eddie Izzard discusses her regrets over not socializing more with Alan Rickman. The hesitancy she felt over taking initiative to reach out to someone she wasn’t sure would reciprocate is a very common and relatable sentiment.
On a lighter note, we also learned that Stanley Tucci was present the second time Eddie broke into Pinewood Studios.

Pairing: Chris Evans x Sebastian Stan
Word count: 11.6k
Rating: E
Summary: Sebastian knows about Chris Evans, has to take his shot when he sees him. Chris doesn’t have a clue who Sebastian is, aside from being a pretty guy he meets in a club. The attraction is instant, and Sebastian takes Chris home, with a little detour or two. Chris thinks it’s just a one-night stand he’ll be thinking about for a long time, cursing himself for not getting the guy’s number. Until a couple of months later, he starts filming on Captain America: The First Avenger, and he meets him again.

(Carry On) Don't Lose Your Head (1967) was the 13th movie in the franchise, and the first to be produced and distributed through the Rank Organisation rather than Anglo-Amalgamated. There were initial concerns in Rank that applying the 'Carry On' prefix might lead to legal complications with the previous distributors, so the movie was initially released as Don't Lose Your Head.
The setting is the French Revolution, and the efforts of Sir Rodney Ffing (the Black Fingernail) played by Sid James, in rescuing French aristocrats from the guillotine, with the help of Jim Dale and defying the head of the French Secret Police (Citizen Camembert - the Big Cheese) played by Kenneth Williams.
Joan Sims has one of the great Carry On lines, which was edited out in some releases.
She is discussing her aristocratic family, "My brother, the Count..."
(It was all in the delivery)
