The Bill
The Bill :
The Bill is still running nowadays and I have been watching it since I was seven (now 23).
The Bill is a long-running drama series about the events that take place at Sun Hill Police Station. Over the years The Bill seems to have got better and better although some of the characters have changed (who remembers Tosh and June anyone?!).
I remember sitting eating Kentucky Fried Chicken with my sister on a Thursday night whilst it was on... ah I wish I was back there again! The well used catchphrase (which doesn't seem to have changed over the years) was "Oi! You're nicked!".

The original fiendishly difficult puzzle,
now with solution guide
The original fiendishly difficult puzzle, invented by Erno Rubik in Hungary and one of the biggest toy crazes ever. In 1982 Hawkin's Bazaar was the first to bring a few cases of the Rubik's Cube to England. Unfortunately 25 years ago we were very small and it wasn't long before a much larger company had the exclusive rights to distribute in the UK. We are very pleased to be offering it again! And now includes a new seven step solution guide.

About Hawkin's Bazaar
Hawkin's Bazaar has been providing you with unusual gifts, toys and gadgets since 1973. Originally a local toy shop at the Hawk Inn (hence the name), Hawkin's Bazaar now sells things you thought had gone forever and things you never even knew existed. They bring you Pin Art, Morph, Rubik's Cube, Big Trak, Space Hoppers and much more.
Also remembered...
Tale Spin was a Disney series from the 90s, that featured several characters from The Jungle Book. The only thing was, they were all pilots! (Well, Louie owned a cafe, but the rest were pilots). This show was brilliantly fun to watch, and had one of the catchiest opening themes known to man. Now if only they'd bring it back...
...and do you remember these?

I used to watch the bill when each episode was individual, a crime was solved without needing to know who was sleeping with who in the station. Why did they have to move this show into the soap opera genre. It would seem now that every officer is bent and when they run out ideas they bomb or burn down the station. Unfortunately now unwatchable unless you are a middle aged soap addict woman ;)

Still watch it now, but like Julian says it was much better when each episode was individual. I do wonder though why they did away with the omnibus edition on a Sunday afternoon, as i remember it used to fit in great with the end of easteneders (which i must add also isnt what it used to be) i remember most of the "old" characters too, burnside, ted roach, tosh lyons etc.
