The fans of ITV’s popular crime drama The Bay were treated to a special appearance of two JCB Backhoes in last week’s episode. Series 4, Episode 2 featured two JCB 3CX machines supplied by our long-standing customer, Buckhurst Plant Hire.
Buckhurst Plant Hire had only just received their two new JCB 3CXs from the factory when the request came in, and they just happened to have two brand new machines arriving at the time of filming the latest episode of The Bay.
Buckhurst Plant Hire is excited to have played a part in one of ITV’s hit dramas and was thrilled to spot their machines in last week’s episode. For anyone who happened to miss last week’s episode, there is no need to worry, as the series is available on ITV catchup.
Buckhurst Plant Hire was established in 1997 by the Walsh Family. The company has grown from the beginning in a small yard with only a handful of machines. It operates out of 6 depots nationwide, offering over 3,000 pieces of plant equipment and numerous JCB machines.
