It was unnecessarily gruesome.

Well, it is completely unrealistic rubbish anyway but if you suspend belief and watch it as fiction it was quite good.

An elderly lady with her piano as the Boss? Very unlikely…...

I thought the programme, which I used to like, and make allowance for its inaccuracies, has become far removed from any semblance of reality.
Rubbish in fact.

Unnecessarily gruesome and horrible subject.. I'm not keen on Silent Witness.. and how many professionals would tolerate their boss playing a piano whilst discussing a case..

I agree, it was an unsettling theme. I really liked the two new people at the Lyell Centre though.

Too uncomfortable for me too. Too near to home.
So I watched Wallace and Grommit (vengeance most fowl) on iplayer.

It was an uncomfortable watch for me. The abuse of old and vulnerable people quite shocking.

Very good the first two programmes, a painful watch in parts.
