New titles for 'The Bill' !

Is this the first week for the new titles ?

Yes a new look for the new year.

If you look on Digital Spy's soaps section it has an explanation for the new titles.

Any Caps?

About time too. IIRC, the previous go back to 2002.

Is it really that long? I wouldve said 2004 or even 2005?

Wow! I love them! Anyone got the closing credits also?

Nope - don't like at all I'm afraid!

They may have worked in the 80's, but they look pretty amatuerish by today's standards. The current them just doesn't work with them either.


I know alot of people will believe a touch of nostalgia is a good thing, but not in this case I'm afraid. I think The Bill, probably more than any comparable drama or soap, has probably moved on the most and this really is a step too far back.

The credits just used the generic ITV credits look.

Simplicity, I like them.

But that siren is flippin annoying.

Terrible. It makes it look like a cheap documentary on the Met. No drama, no danger, absolutely no sequential thought. Poor editing, poorly shot, zero post or grade. I love The Bill, but I'm afraid if I was coming to this as a new viewer, it simply wouldn't make me watch.
