The popular crime drama Silent Witness returns for its 28th series, featuring actress Kerrie Hayes in a role that marks a significant departure from her previous work. Hayes, known for her portrayal of Amanda Morgan in the 2012 BBC drama Good Cop , takes on the character of Faith, a female barrister, in the two-part episode titled Broken. In this episode, which concludes on Tuesday, January 21st, Faith's mysterious disappearance leads Dr.
Nikki Alexander (Emilia Fox) and her team to investigate after a severed hand is found in a canal. Fans will recall Hayes' earlier appearance in Good Cop, where she sported a severe, pulled-back, almost white blonde hairstyle as a new constable on the force. This new role showcases a dramatic transformation with Hayes sporting long blonde locks. She is also recognized for her diverse roles in projects such as the John Lennon biopic Nowhere Boy, the period drama The Mill, episodes of Casualty, Black Mirror, and Vera, as well as recent series The Responder and Showtrial.The first episode of the Silent Witness two-parter featuring Hayes has sparked a wave of fan requests for a significant change in the lead character, Nikki. In an emotionally charged scene, Nikki informs Lucy, Faith's partner, about the grim discovery of Faith's hand but maintains a glimmer of hope that Faith might still be alive. She reveals that DNA found on Faith's hand belongs to someone else and needs to swab Faith's son, Josh, to rule him out. As Nikki shares heartwarming moments with Josh, fans quickly take to social media, passionately advocating for Nikki to have her own children in future episodes. One fan expresses their desire on the platform formerly known as Twitter: 'Nikki and children,' reports the Mirror. Another adds: 'Oh Nikki you can see how she's trying to hold it together #silentwitness.' A viewer makes a heartfelt plea: 'Nikki and another child. Please make this woman a Mum,' while someone else comments: 'The way Nikki looks at the kid and makes him feel so comfortable with her in an instant. She's so maternal.' And another chimes in: 'She would make the sweetest mum.' This maternal yearning for Nikki comes at a time when she is romantically involved with Jack Hodgson (played by David Caves) following his heartfelt proposal at the end of the previous series. Emilia Fox, who brings Nikki to life on screen, acknowledges the couple's romance has resonated with fans. 'The reaction of fans to the proposal at the end of the last series was amazing,' she shares, 'It's the best, most wonderful feeling when the audience really like something and feel that they've got what they wanted. The relationship between Jack and Nikki has been running over such a long period of time, and the expectation has been so great about what would or wouldn't happen, that we wanted that to be rewarded in the way that the proposal took place. There was a real responsibility to get it right.
