Published Thursday, Oct 18 2007, 14:49 BST | By Alex Fletcher
Nick Berry has turned down the opportunity to return to Heartbeat.
The actor has claimed that he's too busy with personal projects to make a one-off appearance in the Yorkshire-based drama's forthcoming series.
Bosses reportedly wanted Berry, who played PC Nick Rowan, to revive his role for the departure of long-term character PC Phil Bellamy.
A source told The Sun: "We tried to persuade Nick to return for Bellamy’s exit but he declined.
"We thought it would be a good idea as Bellamy and Rowan were pals when the show started in 1992.
"Nick didn’t want to do it as he’s busy with his production company and he’s happy doing that."
