The Bill began airing on ITV back in 1983 until its end in 2010.
The award-winning series was phenomenally popular among viewers throughout its 26 year run.
Now, the first five seasons of the show will return to UKTV where the episodes will be available to stream.
More seasons are expected to be added in the future.

The actors said they were like "family" during filming.
The announcement excited fans, with some calling for the show to make a fresh comeback.
