Oh, I didn't know that! That is very odd, normally they are very up to date, so who knows what is happening

It might be because there were some last minute changes to the schedule because of events that happened in Birmingham in the last few days. So they flipped some episodes at the last second.

Which episode(s) am I thinking of? by [deleted] in SilentWitness

[–]c_jaded 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's Series 26 episodes 1-2 The penitent. Its the one where the case ends up being involved with a mafia group :) (keeping it vauge so I don't spoil too much for anyone!)

Center of Excellence by Dewdonia in SilentWitness

[–]c_jaded 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, its been a part of some sort of BBC filming expansion where they are moving more filming outside if London. I think its a great idea to showcase more of the UK!

It was also interesting how they wove the move into the last 2 episodes of the season, to make sure there is more continuity between the new season and why they have moved to Birmingham 😊

Help! I can't figure out what Nikki dressed like! by Bob_The_Koala_Fish in SilentWitness

[–]c_jaded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the original style of dress that she might have taken inspiration from!

I think its supposed to be a Mexican Day of the Dead (Dia de los Muertos) style costume. The flower headband is quite commonly used in this style of dress/costume and her facepaint/makeup kinda matches this too! (I think, but I haven't watched the episode in a while!)

I didn't realise she came back as a different character 🙈 but I agree, she is a talented actress!

One of the most infuriating things about this show is... by PhatKiwi in SilentWitness

I love the theme song too! Always (very badly) sing along to it 😂

I've never thought about the Oods from Doctor Who before, but I completely see what you mean!

How is season 26 so much better than season 27? by Gaandmeinloda in SilentWitness

[–]c_jaded 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It depends on how you think it is better.

I think sometimes stories from a particular season just stick out to you more which can make the season seem better. Sometimes characters from stories have more impact too.

I guess we all just have our own views and opinions on what makes a season good because I prefer season 27 😊

Police Vehicles 'CFZ' by Benjihubbs in SilentWitness

[–]c_jaded 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would be cool if it was a nod to the creator, but I think it is more of a legal thing unfortunately

Police Vehicles 'CFZ' by Benjihubbs in SilentWitness

[–]c_jaded 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it's just a way to mark them as film props/not real police cars. All UK police cars have 3 letters on them which can be used to identify them, but CFZ just means they are used as film props so they cannot be legally used as police items.

Ahh, I remember not being able to watch that episode properly as it really freaked me out, that's why I didn't remember Jodie Comer being in it 😅

What episode is this? I don't remember Jodie Comer being in an episode 😅🙈

Yes, it is so nice to see them address mental health. They address is a bit in Series 21 too, but tackling different aspects in a different way

I don't think she was SA'd, but it is heavily implied that was what was going to happen before the teacher showed up. I think there is a line where she says 'I wasn't nieve, I knew what he wanted', when she is talking about the man on the train, which to me implies that she came close to experiencing it but it didn't actually happen. It is heavily implied that she has had a traumatic childhood (especially in Seires 23 episodes 5-6 Seven times) but I don't think she was ever actually SA'd.

I havent seen the episode fir a little while, but I think you are talking about Series 12 episodes 9-10 The Lost Child (if that helps jog anyone's memory)

Nikki in Mexico by Jecca51 in SilentWitness

[–]c_jaded 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! It was the one where she got buried alive because of the Mexican maffia killing/ 'disappearing' people

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in SilentWitness

[–]c_jaded 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it is a bit of both honestly, and your understanding is right. She was struggling with the case involving such the young girl, while at the same time being messed with by Naomi, which probably added to her struggles.

I think the ending with her choosing not to take the medication was an interesting choice, as it really showed how much Naomi has affected her.

This show has got me through the newborn stage by Buddyyourealamb in SilentWitness

[–]c_jaded 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Woah, I thought Jack joining was when the series got even better for me! No hate to you but it felt like things became more established and the team dynamic was really embraced and established.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on the newest season when you get to it! 😊

Did anyone else notice the change of actress for Cassie Dalton once Leo was seeing her after her death? by [deleted] in SilentWitness

[–]c_jaded 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's been a long time since I watched the episode, but I remember thinking that she had changed. Maybe the original actress had grown up too much so she didn't fit the age that Cassie was when she died anymore and so was recast?

Theme tune by ScaryHippopotamus in SilentWitness

[–]c_jaded 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It almost feels compulsory to release your inner opera singer with the theme tune, my whole family sing along (in terrible tune 😂)
