Solution announced for Scottish 'Bill' fans
- by Daniel Kilkelly, Entertainment Reporter at Digital Spy
The Bill is to be repeated on ITV3 each week, providing Scottish viewers
with an opportunity to keep watching the programme, it has been announced.
Fans in Scotland feared that they would miss out on new episodes after STV
confirmed that it had decided to drop the long-running police drama earlier
this month.
The broadcaster's decision, in effect from this week, coincides with The
Bill's revamp as a post-watershed 9pm show, featuring "grittier" plots and
a shift to high definition filming.
ITV has now announced that repeats of The Bill are to have a regular Monday
11pm slot on ITV3 from next month. In the meantime, the first two new-look
episodes, which premiere on ITV1 this week, will be broadcast again on
Wednesday, July 29 between 11pm and 1am on the digital channel
