The Bill stars surprise fans with dramatically different looks 13 years on
The Bill stars have shocked fans with their dramatically different looks 13 years after the final episode.
The ITV cast members came together again over two decades later for a The Bill Reunion at The Cinema Museum in London over the weekend.
The Bill first hit screens in 1983 and ran for 26 series up until it was sadly cancelled in 2010.
It became the longest running police drama, with a staggering 2,400 episodes set in the fictional Sun Hill.
Rob Cryer actor Eric Richard, Kim Tiddy, who played PC Honey Harman, W.P.C. Debbie Keane actress Andrea Mason and Jennifer Salter actress Carol Royle were amongst those in attendance.

"It was just like a informal chat in the Sun Hill canteen.... The audience loved every minute of it and bless them when I announced that the next one will be on the 20th January 2024 the look of happy but sad faces because they were going to have to wait nine months.
"SO we are going to do The Bill reunion 9 in late Autumn 2023 (date to be confirmed) and The Bill Reunion 10 on the 20th Jaunary 2024."
One fan wrote: "Looks fantastic," whilst another added: "I’m still in love with Honey Harmon."
"Wonderful evening," said a third, whilst someone else exclaimed: "I missed another one????"
Misty Moon, who produces The Bill Reunions along with other TV and films, announced they will be hosting their next event at The Cinema Museum on Saturday the 11th November this year.

The Sun claimed UKTV are "in the early stages of developing a new version" of the fan favourite and states two reboots are in the works.
The series will be a new show entirely to "attract a new generation" of viewers.
A TV insider said: “In the minds of many producers and execs, The Bill is a drama which is just sitting, waiting, to be rebooted.
"It’s a simple format but one which attracted a loyal army of followers who would be delighted to see it return.
“No doubt any new incarnation would be tweaked to make it attract a whole new generation to the show.”
It followed claims from 2021 that actors Graham Cole, Trudie Goodwin and Mark Wingett were all in talks about reprising their roles.
The former cast members were reportedly helping writer Simon Sansome with plans to revise the series.
