Staple Sunday-night viewing for two decades, with a host of colourful characters that viewers took to their heart, illustrious guest stars and a wonderfully nostalgic soundtrack, Heartbeat scooped many prestigious awards – including Best Performing Peak-Time Drama in 1999 (beating Coronation Street), and several ITV Programme of the Year awards. Attracting a peak audience of 14 million and spawning a highly successful spin-off, The Royal, the series has garnered a devoted following and remains prime-time viewing world-wide.
Introducing much-loved regulars like lovable rogue Claude Jeremiah Greengrass, barmaid Gina and district nurse Maggie, the set also features the 1999 special in which Nick and his family begin a new life in Alberta, Canada.
