The thirteenth season of *The Bill* aired throughout 1997, delivering a staggering 152 episodes – including three extended specials – to viewers from January through December. Following a period of significant cast changes, this series saw a welcome stability with just two actors departing: Tom Butcher, beloved as PC Steve Loxton, said farewell after seven years (though he made a memorable guest appearance in 1999 at Dave Quinnan’s wedding), and Alan Westaway, who played PC Nick Slater, moved on after two and a half years. Stepping into their roles were new PCs Luke Ashton and Sam Harker, brought to life by Scott Neal and Matthew Crompton respectively – both of whom had previously appeared as guest actors in earlier episodes.
