Season 19
Every body tells a story: who they were, how they lived, and most importantly, how they died.
Their history is there to be discovered and the body is the key to unlocking the story.
Each season this forensic pathology drama features a new batch of crimes for the team of pathologists to crack.
The show follows the fortunes of the pathologists as they are called on by police to help identify murder victims that have been too badly burned or decomposed to use standard identification methods.
Executive produced by Anne Pivcevic and produced by Madonna Baptiste, Silent Witness continues to tackle topical storylines.
Emilia Fox, David Caves, Richard Lintern and Liz Carr return as the dynamic Lyell team unit.
This season, with five new thrilling, diverse and contemporary stories, Nikki, Thomas, Jack and Clarissa unite once more as the Lyell team face some deadly new enemies.
