Over the years, ''The Bill'' has changed its face to adapt to show the Modern ''[[Metropolitan Police]]'' and to stay fresh with the ever-changing TV land times.

In 2009, ''The Bill'' received a major revamp to make it ''sexier, down to earth and more entertaining '', when it went to a new slot at 9pm, scrapping the show's main theme, being shot in high definition and adding background music to the show. Unfortunately, The Bill was axed by ITV on March 26th 2010 and will screen it's last episode in late summer 2010.
