The Bill

Interesting new arrivals at Sun Hill:

DC Grace Desari (Amita Dhiri) (Arrives June 14th 2007)
PC Sally Armstrong (Ali Bastian) (Arrives July 2007)
PC Billy Rowan (Ben Lee) (Arrives July 2007)
Sgt Callum Stone (Sam Callis) (Arrives August 2007)

and..... PC Lewis Hardy (Aml Ameen) (Leaves August 2007)

From Wikipedia , so absorb with caution

The lovely Sam Callis (of London's Burning fame) is the most interesting. In the most recent series of The Royal , he had only just joined as the new doctor?!

Ironically Sam Callis was in TB a few years ago playing a vicar, who was the brother of a gangmaster (the Radfords).

I remember Sam Callis from Londons Burning. I also remember he was in an episode of Holby City as well (like most other actors have been at some point!)

Well, apart from Becca are any of these actually over the age of 14?

There's a sneak peak video of Thurs 4th July's episode with Ali Bastian here http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/soaps/a63138/video-ali-bastians-first-scenes-in-the-bill.html

Also... former 'Bread' star Jean Boht is to guest star in The Bill which will be shown in August. More here - http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/soaps/a63190/bread-actress-to-guest-in-the-bill.html

Sam Callis in his 30s I think, and shock/horror not been in Deadenders ! He was also in Ultimate Force . He played Adam Benjamin in London's Burning if I rightly recall.

To make things even more laughable, last week they had 21-year old Ophelia Lovibond playing a 15-year old hooker!

Ben Richards (Bruno in Footballers' Wives ) is joining The Bill as PC Nate shortly, it was announced in The Sun yesterday.

Scott Maslen, who plays DS Hunter, is leaving The Bill to join EE. The scriptwriters at Deadenders are casting him as a....wait for it... romeo ex-copper. How inspired

A bit late with the news, now whos the deadender

I like Ben Richards so im glad he is joining - will be a more regular viewer of the The Bill for sure if he is on. I heard that Darren Day is guest starrring next week too.

Deadenders- good name, and very true as well

Truley amazing police chase. I've never been able to get over 25mph round Londaarn town and i've never seen any emergency service get through the traffic at that speed before.

That's the bill for you.
