Can anyone fill me in on the reason for the change and also tell me how long it ran and is it still on? Thanks.

John Hannah was the first to play the character but it was felt later that he was too 'clean cut' to play the Highland Park quaffing Rebus. Ken Stott then took over and in many ways is a better choice. To my knowledge the series hasn't officially ended but if they are adapting the books there is a limit because the final one has been written (unless Rakin does a 'Conan-Doyle' but I have a feeling that won't be happening).
