3:35 - classic "Bill"! Sergeant Penny, Taffy Edwards, Viv Martella, Brownlow, Ackland and Cryer. Those were the good old days! Does anyone even remember these characters anymore?
Great tributeYou have done very well indeed.I have done a few tributes myself for the bill and resently a montage. I am pleased to say that your video has made it onto my montage list in rememberance to this well loved series. Thank you for sharing this video with us all. bravo2zero
I was 19 when Season 1 came out. Still remember it today and have the first 3 seasons on DVD. Need more cops like Roy Galloway and Frank Burnside on and off screen. The new could never ever surpass the old. Love the anti PC. I dabble in writing SP's/ novels and I can only dream of thinking up the creations that Geoff McQueen did.
@kbg7812 They weren't in the photo I was talking about at 3:35. Tony Stamp wasn't a regular back at that time either, only an extra. Plenty of other main characters from around then too, like Roach, Carver, Dashwood, Yorkie Smith, Robin Frank, Galloway, Sgt. Peters, etc.
they are in a secure warehouse, alot of scenes are in the street and quite a few of them are actual 'sets' constructed by production and computers are used in some scenes...
Did saw a filming of the Bill in 1996 when they was filming in Clapham one afternoon when a few members of the cast was filming outside the old night club which is no longer there. Think I got myself into the show by accident
It went downhill as soon as they started using that shit saxophone version of the theme and got rid of the 7/8 time signature. Typical dumbing down of everything for the masses.
daniel anderson I know man those were the good old days when The Bill was The Bill. It started to decline from 2002 in my opinion but still enjoyed the rest of the shows though.
Completely agree; when it was half-hour and crime-based it was realistic and entertaining. Now it's soapy and focussed excessively on the personal lives and involvements of the policemen. It's a shame.
can someone please tell me what episode is 0:55 ive been looking for that one for a long time i remember watching it as a kid but i cant remember the season it was in
Great vid! Is there any chance that you could send me the pics at 4:58,5:05 and 5:24 Also, does anybody know when the bill, is going to get the new astra's and the new bmw's?
I think the 2007-2008 version of it is better, not because its most recent, but because it has good story lines,cast and you no it you love it, the theme music! even though i was born in 1989 i dont realy like the 90's version
I live down under and this is my favourite show! Since you English luv AUSTRALIA check out my video which I filmed in the Australian outdoors PRANKSTERS IN THE PARK.
The Bill is a great programme,but was much better a few years ago.Saw the Simon Rouse interview on the telly last week,he says that they are trying to get away from the soapy style of programme and having too many poofs in the story lines, which spoils the programme.Its horrible seeing men kissing men.

I was just strolling down the street that afternoon mind
Most of the Bill Characters up to the 2000's were the best
But Burnside is one of my favorites
Thanks for that, but on the car chase scenes dont they cause problems where traffic is concerned?
It all went downhill when they got rid of Mr Brownlow and all the others in 2000
Have to agree. It went into rather too soapy for my liking....

@@jtpinnyc back in the 80's and 90's it was pure grit action now its pansies and whips and crybabies.
daniel anderson I know man those were the good old days when The Bill was The Bill. It started to decline from 2002 in my opinion but still enjoyed the rest of the shows though.
you can watch the old episodes of the bill on uktv gold
Completely agree; when it was half-hour and crime-based it was realistic and entertaining. Now it's soapy and focussed excessively on the personal lives and involvements of the policemen. It's a shame.
i love the Police Vauxhall Vectra such a nice car they still use the Ford Focus down here where im from south devon ^_^

Great vid!
Is there any chance that you could send me the pics at 4:58,5:05 and 5:24
Also, does anybody know when the bill, is going to get the new astra's and the new bmw's?
@longshanks1980 Neither there is no sadness involved best tv show of all time in my opinion
in the night time, where do they put the cars. And in car chases are they actually filmed in the street.
Where's Tosh??!! lol ;-)
at 4:46 is that Frank Burnside in the centre?
I think the 2007-2008 version of it is better, not because its most recent, but because it has good story lines,cast and you no it you love it, the theme music! even though i was born in 1989 i dont realy like the 90's version
What episode is the shot at 5:18 from?
@LONDONER01 think they do on GOLD not sure
des taviner was what actually made the show good, hes in here somewhere
I believe Jack Meadows is the best because he was one of the longest running cop to be there
well wheres Kent, Beech, Chandler, Okaro, Mannion?.........
does anyone know when. the bill was fast aired I was born 1987
1984 i think
you can almost see the rust on the metros lol
1:06 is when Irene Radford got killed
6:28 Rover SD1!!!!
Cool. No I mean the new shape Astra's, on the show, they are still using the old shape astra's.
I mean One of these:
