on dirait un AEC RT "provincialisé"...

Quite skilfully, I'd say; Belfast red & cream livery and a (probably fake) NI registration.

Odd, because the scene is supposed to be in London. Perhaps the Belfast livery is left over from a previous film or television project.

Oh ... well, maybe it's an unsuccessful attempt to reproduce pre-war LT livery on a postwar bus ... but it does seem to have a Northern Ireland registration (*Z ####).

But obviously a fake plate ... it's in the wrong place (note the square recess at the RH side; that's the right one) and it's made with a Letraset product.

Agreed they didn't bother to change the Belfast livery for the short scene, but also leaving the dummy registration as it seems very strange.

That's not Belfast Corporation livery - it looks nothing like it - even the wrong shades!
