I was watching this last night and thought most of it was bonkers. Did anyone else think the same? Was it a new script writer, or just me? I know I was knitting baby hats at the same time, but surely ........

I thought I'd give this episode a try. Stuck it for 10 minutes - utterly ridiculous. Why would the forensic team be investigating the murders whilst the gunman/ woman was still there firing shots at them? Unbelievable.

Should have watched for a bit longer then.

Last one of the series tonight.

It struck me as rather odd that a wealthy family would stable a horse in the woods.

I'm sure it would have preferred a nice sunlit paddock with some grazing. hmm

There was a fenced field at the edge of the wood that horse was in.

I am pleased that this is the last episode of the series tonight. I think that Silent Witness should be put to bed permanently.

I am ashamed to say that as I watched Monday night's episode and the team made their way through the litter of corpses I thought: 'Oh good, this looks like a return to a proper, vintage Silent Witness.'
But what a horrible house!

Why, welshwife? Did it make more sense? I'm afraid I found the opening unbelievable and so that put me off staying with it.

All complicated of course but not the gunman

Perhaps I should give it another go on catch up.

What amazes me apart from the plots is the houses they all live in ,all with state of the art kitchens!

Anyone else notice that they appear to have moved Christmas day to late September? All the trees in leaf with just the bracken in the woods starting to turn brown. Not a hint of frost at all.?

Yes, I noticed that fiorentina. I don't know if that, in part, put me off watching more than 10 minutes. It certainly irritated me! ( Daft, I know, but there we are). ?
