An over zealous Social Worker?
Sleepin_Dragon9 March 2020
A little girl is seemingly in danger from her dysfunctional parents, a Social Worker applies for the Child to be put into care, but the case fails. Louise Marsh the Social Worker in question is at the centre in another case, where a teen leaves care, and tracks down his mother and her new love, who was accused of inappropriate behaviour.

It's a well made, produced and directed episode, the characters are good. It's just a little bleak, the subject material is dark of course, but some of the content is a little sickening.

DI Rory Drennan is a bit of a moron, I am stunned he's able to dress himself, let alone pass an exam.

Claudia Blakley is very, very good, she is one mixed up Social Worker.

Very good, 8/10.

Another Close to the Bone Episode

I've never seen Silent witness before and Busy binge watching from series 1 up to series 18 episode 5 (This one) and although loving it literally from the start I must confess to noticing That there seems to be a Huge amount of Irish Actors and actresses used in this Show from the beginning which I've found unusual for an English show or am I the only one who has noticed this.

Either way there's been some huge ups and Downs since Season 1 and with the loss of Harry First then Leo my thoughts were that this spells the end of this show but I must admit I'm slowly warming to Jack and Clarissa.
