ITV-mandated overhaul saw the series output halved to one episode a week, the show previously running two hour-long episodes at 8pm since 1998, the new format to be launched that summer as one episode a week in a post-watershed slot of 9pm. ITV claimed the show was needing a change of direction and was intending to make the show "darker, and more gritty", but it was also noted the show would save ITV up to £65 million by reducing its air time. The move would also see the show axed from Scottish equivalent network STV after 25 years, although this was not done with the support of ITV themselves; this made it inaccessible without viewers paying for satellite TV. The show would end up winning its first ever BAFTA for Best Recurring Drama in the spring, after the announcement was made, a reminder in hindsight of the show's successes prior to ITV's ill-fated overhaul a year before its conclusion.
