Blippi

(Moonbug Entertainment children's educational programme, 2014-)

Blippi Explores a Bus:
Goofy American Blippy, played by Clayton Grimm (for goofy, read irritating little man) looks at buses, with the help of Hart Area Rapid Transit Authority (HART) of Tampa, Florida. We see a number of HART vehicles.
Star of the show is HART 1508, a Gillig Low Floor CNG new in 2015, of which more later:

Blippi Explores London on a Double-Decker Bus (2022)

In this piece Blippy visits London and rides on an open-top bus.
It's former London Transport DMS1304 (MLH304L), a Daimler Fleetline/MCW new in 1972, and it's operating for London Classic Bus Hire (also note the glimpsed Neoplan):
