简介:
The Bill is a long running British police procedural television series, unusual among police dramas in that its focus is on the lives and work of one shift of police officers, rather than on any particular aspect of police work. The series is produced by Talkback Thames, its name originating from "Old Bill", a slang term for the police and Geoff McQueen's original title for the series. It originated as a one-off drama, entitled Woodentop in August 1983. However, ITV were impressed to the extent that The Bill started as a series in October the following year. Woodentop starred Trudie Goodwin as WPC June Ackland of the fictional Sun Hill police station in London, who later became the last remaining original cast member.
The series has come under attack by the Police Federation, which accused it of portraying the police as a racist organisation; however, relations are now on better terms to the extent that the executive producer met with the Metropolitan Police Commissioner to discuss the editorial relationship. Uniquely for a British television series, The Bill uses authentic police uniforms and equipment.
The Bill's theme tune, "Overkill", used in one form or another since The Bill's beginning as a series in 1985, was controversially replaced in 2009 as part of an overhaul of the series. The Bill causes occasional controversy, particularly with its story lines. For example, a 2008 episode that featured a fictional treatment for multiple sclerosis, and another in May of the same year that resulted in litigation by MP George Galloway for defamation. The series has also faced more general criticism concerning the levels of violence it portrays, particularly prior to 2009, when it occupied a pre watershed slot.
In spite of the controversies, The Bill has beaten several other popular series to a series of awards, including a BAFTA and the title of "best drama" at the Inside Soap Awards in 2009, the latter being the series' fourth consecutive win. Throughout its history, The Bill has always been broadcast on ITV (later renamed ITV1 with the network's expansion into digital television). It is now repeated on ITV3, part of ITV's digital network, as well as on digital channels Alibi and Watch. The Bill used to air three times a week in a half hour format on ITV. This was later changed to twice a week in an hour format. As part of the major overhaul in July 2009 this changed again and The Bill currently airs once a week in a one hour format.
