THE Bill is being axed by ITV in the autumn after a 27 year run.
ITV said The Bill was being dropped as part of a creative rethink and wasn't due to cost cuts.
Last year bosses opted to give the show, based in fictional station Sun Hill, a single slot at 9pm on Thursday instead of two episodes a week at 8pm.
But the changes didn't improve ratings, with recent audiences averaging at about 3.5million instead of the 7m it achieved back in 2002.
ITV boss Peter Fincham said: "The Bill has been a fixture on our screens for more than 25 years and has been the home of some of the UK's best serial drama storylines, and a great showcase for terrific scriptwriting and fine acting talent.But times change, and so do the tastes of our audience. Whilst The Bill will come to an end in 2010, we will continue to invest more in drama programming than any other commercial broadcaster in the UK and viewers can look forward to a wide range of high quality drama on ITV1."
ITV have No idea about their viewers or what their viewers want to watch, yet again its ITV thinking they know whats what and they dont,
so if you watched then Video Join the facebook group and help make a stand... even if ITV dont rethink it, maybe it will spark enough interest for another broadcaster to pick it up and bring The BIll back to life ..
please join and help
