Silent Witness

Series 15 - 10. Fear - Part Two

Review by:
Jane Rackham

While we’re not quite in the realm of spinning heads, there are definite shades of The Exorcist in this concluding episode. Shortly before her sudden death, 15-year-old Eve told her psychiatrist she believed she was possessed by demons. Leo concludes that this is what indirectly caused her death. But, because he’s not lazy and still isn’t sure, he continues investigating. For a drama based in scientific facts, there’s a bit too much mumbo jumbo. But there are also some cracking effects and a startling performance from Adrian Dunbar.

About this programme

10/12. Part two of two. The team delves deeper into the circumstances surrounding Eve's death. Leo confronts the girl's mother and comes close to what actually happened the night before her daughter died, while Harry and Nikki track down the nun who performed the exorcism - and are shocked by what they find. Psychiatrist Sean turns his attention to Eve's brother John, who believes he is also possessed by the demons that haunted his sister - is history about to repeat itself? Tamzin Outhwaite, Tom Ellis and Adrian Dunbar guest star.
