‘Silent Witness’: Season 24 Gets September UK Premiere Date On BBC One

British crime drama institution Silent Witness is set to return this September, as BBC One set a UK premiere date for the 24th Season.

‘Silent Witness’ follows Dr Nikki Alexander (Emilia Fox) and her team of forensic pathologists as they delve in to solve various criminal cases. The cases that end up at The Lyell Centre are rarely straightforward. Initial suspicions are challenged as the evidence mounts, and Nikki and the team must work harder than ever to find the truth.

The 23rd Season came to an explosive conclusion in February 2020, (SPOILER WARNING!) leaving a shocked audience with the departure of two of the series regular characters: Clarissa Mullery (Liz Carr) and Dr Thomas Chamberlain (Richard Lintern). The drama would usually have returned in January, but due to the little issue of a global pandemic, the new season was delayed until now. The series was also renewed for a 25th season back in February 2020, which is due to land in 2022.

The 24th Season sees Dr Nikki Alexander and Jack Hodgson (David Caves) looking forward to the future. However buried secrets and memories soon surface, and, when ghosts from the past emerge, the two are forced increasingly close to one another.

As they are now a little short-handed, a new member joins the team, however, the arrival of Adam Yuen (Jason Wong – ‘The Gentlemen’, ‘Missing’) disturbs the new dynamic between the duo. A confident, bright and keen pathologist who’s constantly striving to be the best, he immediately rubs Nikki and Jack up the wrong way. Will Adam find his own way to fit in and last at the Lyell?

‘Silent Witness’ is a BBC Studios production for BBC One. Executive Producers are Lawrence Till, Emilia Fox and Priscilla Parish for BBC Studios and Jo McClellan for BBC One. Nick Lambon produces. BBC Studios handle global distribution.

Silent Witness‘ Season 24 premieres Monday, 6th September 2021 at 9pm on BBC One.
