The Scoring System

When there are so many good Bill episodes out there, it's hard to know if what you're watching is glory or inconsequential. There is the episode guide, however, this is a fun little system I devised to keep me entertained while I waited through the...never-ending wait of non-soap episodes, and pure boorish boring bits of soap ones (usually its better to record and fast-forward through them though, far more effective).

Note I: The 'Higher Scoring' episodes were towards the end of Kate Spears' time at Sun Hill.
Note II: Last 6 'bonuses' never happened and are wishful thinking/hinting for The Bill's writers (and 'minuses' are guide of what not to do).
