His Dark Materials (BBC fantasy drama, 2019)
Partly set in Oxford, but an Oxford in two parallel and linked worlds.

Episode 2: The Idea of North:
Views of the more familiar Oxford include a night shot of St Aldates, and Oxford Bus 606 (SC64OXF) an ADL E400MMC in BrookesBus livery but operating route X3 from Abingdon.

In the same street, in daylight, Stagecoach Oxford 10432 (SK15HCO, ADL E40D) on route 5 to Blackbird Leys leads an ADL E400H in green hybrid livery on route 10 to the John Radcliffe Hospital, and an Oxford Bus E400MMC in BrookesBus livery on route X13 also to the John Radcliffe, while Oxford Bus 306 (HF11OXF, ADL E400H) picks up bound for Abingdon on route 35:

Heading away from the camera is a Weavaway Travel Volvo B11R/Jonckheere:
