Series chronology | |
The eleventh series of The Bill, a British television drama, consisted of 149 episodes, broadcast between 5 January – 29 December 1995. The series saw a relatively small number of changes made to the cast. Cast members Philip Whitchurch (Ch. Insp. Cato) and Jaye Griffiths (DI Johnson) both left the series in early 1995, with Johnson's position being taken by current cast member Shaun Scott (DS Deakin) who was re-instated to his previous rank of DI, while Mark Spalding joined the cast as Ch. Insp. Stritch, before himself leaving later in the year.
Martin Marquez left his role as DS Pearce in September 1995, before being replaced by Russell Boulter, who joined the cast as DS Boulton. Other new arrivals in the series include Billy Murray (DS Beech), Alan Westaway (PC Slater) and Andrea Mason (WPC Keane). The series also saw the brief return of Mary Jo Randle as DS Morgan, before her character was killed off in a special four-part story arc in which a hitman targeted WPC Ackland. On 6 February 2013, the complete series was released on DVD in Australia.
