I used to use the 38 all the time. Never saw what was so wrong with them really. Those interviews show that, unlike the way the media presented it, there was never any real popular desire to get rid of the bendy buses. Just a populist tactic by Boris Johnson, which is likely to impact London more because of the expense of replacing them.
