Silent Witness

No can't explain it either, we thought we were seeing things .

It was all sorted. Went back to that scene at the beginning when the three wearing the masks went to that isolated house. They were students from the cramming school. They killed the couple and the girl suffocated the baby. They got worried about the chappie found drowned because he started to feel bad about the crime when he became a father so they saw him off.
The new forensic man I think is OK but had discovered that the woman under Sally the missing owner of the lab was in cahoots with the funeral director with selling body parts. They (Emilie Fox and the new pathologist) and find the pair of them cutting up Sally’s Merc with an angle grinder. The police were called early on in the incident and all ended hunky dory.

Welsh wife I did get the gist of the main story it was the visions that Emilie Fox was having that I didn't get ,in the middle of the episode she saw the face of a man in a window I think in her home and who was the hanging woman she saw in the final shots?
I'm going to have to watch the end again today to make sure I didn't imagine it.

I didn’t enjoy this one I m afraid I usually live it

This program has been done to death now. I starting watching the first half but lost interest and didnt even bother with the second part. Too much of the same format.
Emilie Fox looking so fragile now i thought.

I have given up on SW . Tried to watch this latest one but gave up half way through .

Yes, I understood the twists and turns but agree it’s getting too convoluted and it has lost the original appeal.

Love the theme music though.

Oh good I’m glad others say it’s getting convoluted (haven’t heard that word for years, my mum used it all the time) I thought it was just me and my brain was slowing down. Do any of you think that lots of television plots are similarly convoluted, or maybe it is me. I’m often confused by these new dramas

All her nightmare bits are from the last episodes when they went to Mexico and she was buried. Can’t remember the ins and outs of that story though!

I watched the first of these episodes and though it was a bit far-fetched. Having read this thread I will resist the temptation to watch part 2!

Thank you, Welshwife. Will you be on hand to explain next week's as well?

Glad it wasn't just me then. DH says it's a theme with TV dramas, all ending unsatisfactorily.

Thanks for reminding me I guess that also explains her fragility. I just watched the last few minutes again and the 'hanging woman' was a mural on her bathroom wall ???

Thank you for the explanation Welshwife, I didn’t have a clue about the ending as I had nodded off for a while. Hope next weeks isn’t as weird!

H and I love SW but we both confessed to being very confused by the first episode and not much wiser at the end of the second ! We will watch next week though.

I thought that the mural on the wall was of a woman diver. Think part of the confusion is that they were running two quite separate stories simultaneously. The 'cold case' from 2001, although that was brought into being by the death of one of the three original killers, and then the case about the new man and the death of Nikki's friend. These cases were not associated in any way. I tend to record both episodes and then watch them together when I get the opportunity.

Franbern you're right it was a women diving but I only glimpsed at it as I thought the programme was over and out of the corner of my eye I thought it was a body hanging.

I couldn't seem to follow it at all!! But I did sleep through quite a bit if it!! However welshwifes explanation has cleared it up for me, thank you

Yes I agree, it wasn’t easy to keep pace and make any sense of it all. But still find it compelling viewing in its own way.
travelsafar Silent Witness ...”done to death now” just love it!!

Phew all round then! I thought I must be losing it. It was hard work trying to keep up with /work out what was going on. I record both programmes as I don't like having to try to remember what happened in the previous episode. I suppose it's good for my cognitive flexibility to try to make sense of dramas on TV these days. At least I could hear what they were saying!

I was also confused by the ending ......thanks for explaining.

I’m afraid the last series put me right off this programme so didn’t bother with this new series. It has become so ridiculously far fetched with forensic people chasing suspects, interviewing them with the police, etc. Nonsensical rubbish. A shame, it used to be quite good.

Would the forensic team..in reality start chasing suspects and go prowling around on their own? I mean do they really have the time to do this,? It's all so far fetched
