The Bill

The final episode of the police drama ‘The Bill’ will be on our screens at the end of the month following the axing of the programme in March due to a fall in ratings.

The finale, which has been given the title ‘Respect’ will be followed by a one-hour special documentary called ‘Farewell The Bill’ outlining the shows history as well as taking a look behind the scenes as the cast and crew film their final acts.

Britain’s longest running police series began on 16th October 1984 and was originally intended as a one-off but was soon commissioned for a one-hour weekly slot.  In 1988, the series was increased to three programmes a week before returning to a weekly one-hour episode ten-years later.

The final episode was filmed in June of this year and is due to be aired on August 31st at 9pm on ITV followed by the special documentary at 10.35pm.
