Silent Witness (TV Series) The Fall Out: Part 1 (2002) User Reviews

All change.

[Sleepin_Dragon · 9/10 · 19 December 2019]

Faith was the end of the original format, The Fall out is very much the start of the show that's still going strong.

All is new, it's now running for an hour per episode, and the team of three is now in place, with Sam not the only investigating pathologist. The two would develop and stay on for years to come.

Sam, Leo and Harry are called in to investigate a tragic motorway accident. She's attempting to put the pieces together, but she's unhelpfully blocked by DCI Deacon.

This was fantastic. 9/10

The addition of Leo and Harry

[ronalamont · 9/10 · 12 February 2019]

This fast paced episode introduces two important new characters, Leo Dalton and Harry Cunningham. As colleagues they work perfectly together but their roles seem very overshadowed by Sam. After she leaves the show they come into their own and their roles blossom into the amazing quirky partnership we grow to love. They are truly well-written and well-acted characters.

Horrible Accident

[Hitchcoc · 9/10 · 2 March 2019]

A perfect storm of an accident occurs, and because there are eleven victim, including a little girl, it gets quite complex. In addition to guilt, cover-ups, and blame avoidance, there is something going on with the police and some surveillance issues and foreign criminals. Sam's reputation for causing disruptions in the normal (sloppy) police work is seen as a roadblock. I will be interested to see how this plays out.
