    I live in Australia, started watching the Bill in 1993. Never missed an episode up to the last one in 2010. I also have all the books. Thank you for putting this these episodes on RUclips. I now can catch up on them.

      Also from Australia and started watching in 1993 (Series 9). Earliest memories are Viv getting shot and Burnside leaving. I lost interest sometime in 2002 (Series 18). It was a joke by that point.

    I also followed the characters and the acters and actresses. I absolutely loved the Bill and was really heartbroken when it ended.

    That was so satisfying to see a villain get the daylights beaten out of him.

    Thank you 999 for this. I've previously only seen the last few years of The Bill and I loved it. This is wonderful. Great storylines and great acting. It's terrific seeing the characters/actors as young people starting out in their careers. I've watched a few today and can't wait to watch the next episode. I'd stay up watching for another few hours if I didn't have an early start tomorrow. Thanks again.

    Oh this show was so good for a number of years, then they forgot the basic principle of only showing things from the coppers' viewpoint, got too involved with their private lives and we stopped watching.

      It had its crappy period, but when it was at its peak - it was easily the best show on tv.

    I remember watching this episode with my mam and my friend Nicholas. Nick and I were young teens at the time and he got quite excited with June Ackland's top being ripped, exposing her bra.

      hahahahaha.....I did the same thing. I always had the hots for June, but ultimately, it was Viv Martella for me. My mate had a thing for Narika....

    I wonder if that's like a police academy move. One officer pulls the assailant back so the other one can get in front and knee the assailant in the cobblers?

      I knew my boss watched The Bill, so in a meeting one day I described someone as being the "Reg Hollis" of the organization. She looked at me and said "I love Reg Hollis".... where could I go from there? We had a good laugh.

    Has that Galloway got a bad case of 'roids or what?

  • @Oksana7305
    @Oksana7305 8 лет назад +2

    They should have kept Galloway in - paid him extra. He and Burnside were the best - followed by Gina Gold, Reg Hollis, Neil Manson and Don Beech.

    • @jamespwoods4324
      @jamespwoods4324 3 года назад +1

      Andrew Lancel (DI Manson) was one of the worst additions to the show and after Don Beech the show went down the toilet real fast.
