Silent Witness: Season 4 (1999)

Gone Tomorrow. Writer Niall Leonard. Director Matthew Evans.

A helicopter goes down in the North Sea. Sam is called in (she's now based in London).

It is (of course) more complicated than it appears; has something of a far-fetched ending. Somehwta clumsily directed.

With Paul Copley, Robert Pugh, Nigel Terry, Melanie Hill, Karen Henthron.

A Kind of Justice. Writer Peter Lloyd. Director Richard Signy.

Sam is called in by a man accused of murder, Tom Georgeson - she believes him, and an unlikely friendship ensues. Turns out he's connected with the very bad Georghiou brothers, only one of whom now survives, Peter Jonfield.

Police involved - Aden Gillett, David Lyon, Patrick Cremin - may be corrupt.

Sub-story about youth sucked in to world of crime doesn't really add to it or go anywhere.

With Isobel Middleton.
