On The Bill, we strive to portray our onscreen officers as authentically as it is possible within a drama.
One aspect of this realism is how Sun Hill’s crims are apprehended and arrested.
That’s where the MET came in – literally: A senior ranking police officer instructed four of the show’s female cast how she would restrain and arrest real-life suspects.
Clare Goose (Insp Rachel Weston), Clare Foster (PC Millie Brown), Rhea Bailey (PC Mel Ryder) and Cat Simmons (DC Kezia Walker) all packed a punch. So don’t mess!
