Scott & Bailey is a British drama series that debuted on ITV on 29 May 2011 and concluded on 27 April 2016. The series stars Suranne Jones, Lesley Sharp, Amelia Bullmore (series 1-5), Nicholas Gleaves (series 1-2), Danny Miller (series 3-4), and Pippa Haywood (series 5). Based on an original idea by Jones and Sally Lindsay, the show revolves around the personal and professional lives of its protagonists. The programme features Detectives Janet Scott (played by Sharp) and Rachel Bailey (played by Jones). Both characters are members of the Syndicate Nine Major Incident Team (MIT) of the fictional Manchester Metropolitan Police.

A creative choice was made to end the series after an abbreviated fifth season in 2016, despite continued good reception and strong viewership. [1] [2]

Scott & Bailey was commissioned after the concept was introduced to executive producer Nicola Shindler, who brought it to writer Sally Wainwright. The series is produced by Manchester-based Red Production Company and is largely filmed in the Greater Manchester area.
