Series: Reaching a Verdict

As The Bill entered a new decade, the programme makers once again faced the challenge of finding a new location for Sun Hill police station. But this time they had to do so without a break in the gruelling filming schedule and ensure that new episodes of ITV's bi-weekly ratings smash were in constant production...

In the second of his acclaimed REACHING A VERDICT series, TV historian Edward Kellett returns to investigate how from this testing period, The Bill emerged a show better than ever, willing to experiment with longer storylines and unlock the full potential of the half-hour format.

Discover how the programme's greatest writers, under the command of executive producer Michael Chapman, joined forces to create 314 episodes of drama tackling contemporary issues in Britain and ensuring The Bill took no prisoners in the 1990s.

REACHING A VERDICT: REVIEWING THE BILL (1990-1992) opens with a Foreword by producer Tony Virgo and an Afterword by legendary writer J.C. Wilsher.

""EDWARD KELLETT IS A MASTER STORYTELLER WHO VIVIDLY CAPTURES A REMARKABLE ERA OF BRITISH TELEVISION DRAMA"" - Barry Appleton, legendary The Bill writer.

""THE AMOUNT OF DETAIL IN EDWARD KELLETT'S ERUDITE, CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE BILL IS ASTONISHING"" - Christopher Russell, legendary The Bill writer.
