Silent Witness (Seasons 1–29)

Silent Witness (1996) is a BBC crime drama series you can watch online on iFILM, following a team of forensic pathologists who find what conventional police work misses — the bruise pattern that names the killer, the toxin hidden in tissue, the wound that rewrites the whole timeline.

Amanda Burton anchored the show through its early seasons, with Emilia Fox later carrying it forward as Dr. Nikki Alexander. David Caves and Tom Ward filled out the lab team as the series expanded from tight two-part cases into longer story arcs stretching across entire seasons. The murders range from street crime to political conspiracy; what stays constant is the procedure — methodical, clinical, occasionally unsettling.

More than two decades on the air make it one of the longest-running crime dramas in British television history. Stream all seasons of Silent Witness online on iFILM.
