00:00It's got to stay. This is why, you know, we've just been saying how many buses are running up and down here today.

00:06It doesn't affect us because we're pensioners so we have a free bus pass, but if I don't use my bus pass out of hours,

00:14I think the £2 is absolutely spot on to get wherever you need to be.

00:19And how important do you think the coastliner is?

00:22The coastliner is absolutely, it's a link for everybody to enjoy, you know, the freedoms that we've got here.

00:27It's a simple way of just hopping on a bus and getting across there, it's fantastic.

00:33£2, what do you think about them finishing the fares for £2?

00:41Bring them back, I say.

01:22It should never have been on?

01:24Would you not like it?
