[edit] Character creation
In October 2007 it was announced that actress Lucy Speed would be joining the cast of the successful ITV police drama, The Bill. Speed was previously best known for playing Natalie Evans in BBC's EastEnders, and she joins a long line of former EastEnders stars to appear in The Bill, including Todd Carty (Mark Fowler/Gabriel Kent), Roberta Taylor (Irene Raymond/Gina Gold), Gillian Taylforth (Kathy Mitchell/Nikki Wright), Louisa Lytton (Ruby Allen/Beth Green), Russell Floyd (Michael Rose/Ken Drummond) and Steven Hartley (Matthew Jackson/Tom Chandler) among others.
Speed plays DC Stevie Moss, a regular character who first appeared on-screen from January 2008. Speaking of her new role, Speed said: "Stevie's such a great character. I'm really looking forward to my first scripts! Stevie's one of those people who you think is really open, but she's just very good at hiding her true feelings and what's going on in her life. I think the really exciting part will be my ride-along days with the real police – it'll be great to see how it all happens."[1]
Her third role in the long-running serial drama, Speed had previously appeared in guest roles in 1993 and 2006. Speed has commented, "I've always wanted to get the long term gig here so I'm pleased ... [Stevie Moss comes] from an undercover unit. She's quite girly to look at I suppose; she's not trying to be a boy, but she's quite boyish - she gets stuck in with the fights and she's always got a cheeky answer to everything, and she talks a bit much."[2][3]
[edit] Storylines
DC Stevie Moss had her first major storyline with DS Max Carter, DC Terry Perkins and DC Mickey Webb on January 2nd 2008. She arrested a man for a hit and run and hit off with the CID team immediately.
