Title: The Bill - descriptions
Post by: kidhazy on July 04, 2006, 04:00:20 PM
I know it may not be one of the most popular series, but my wife loves it, and she was dissapointed to see the generic description for The Bill episodes when we switched over to ICE Guide data.

Any chance of getting the actual episode descriptions for the The Bill series - particularly the new episodes on Tuesday and Saturday nights?

Thanks,
kidhazy.

I'd second that.

The Bill has a huge following here - one of the reasons why they did a couple of episodes here a few years back - and we have just about caught up to the UK series.

We haven't left 'The Bill' out due to any perceived levels of popularity. The reasons are technical, so I ask for patience ..... I am working on a solution. Thanks.

Are there plans to further improve ABC descriptions??  What about 4 Corners and Enough Rope?.  Both seem to have generic only descriptions

Glad The Bill people can rest easy now :) Ok .......... further improve 'the rest of the ABC Descriptions'? Wow. The programs in question would be Four Corners, Foreign Correspondent, Enough Rope, Australian Story (and a couple that slip my mind right now). Without getting too verbose .... there is a reason why sometimes these descriptions remain generic. The ABC usually distribute a late synopses list on Fridays ..... and sometimes they don't. I would say it's the exception rather than the rule. Not buck passing blame - just the facts. I'm a fan too of these shows and I get annoyed right along with you. Thanks for the chance to explain this though.
