The Bill series 1 to 26
UK police drama The Bill, complete seasons 1 to 26. Some recorded from UK TV boardcasts, others gathered from various sources. Note that a few episodes are edited for content on daytime TV, and will be replaced by uncensored versions when they become available. The Bill is a British police procedural television series, first broadcast on ITV from 16 October 1984 until 31 August 2010. The programme originated from a one-off drama, Woodentop, broadcast in August 1983. The programme focused on the lives and work of one shift of police officers of all ranks, and the storylines dealt with situations faced by uniformed officers working on the beat, as well as plainclothes detectives. The Bill was the longest-running police procedural television series in the United Kingdom, and among the longest running of any British television series at the time of its cancellation. The title originates from "Old Bill", a slang term for the police. Throughout its 26-year run, the programme was always broadcast on the main ITV network.
