BBC viewers have been left ‘grossed out’ by the latest episode of crime drama Silent Witness.
In the latest instalment of Silent Witness viewers watched as an unknown illness continued to wreak havoc during a flight, with Dr Nikki Alexander (Emilia Fox) trying desperately to solve it and save lives.
Within minutes of the latest episode Vanishing Point airing, viewers were left stunned as one passenger spewed yellow bile and vomit as he fell ill.
The scenes left some viewers queasy as they didn’t expect to see such graphic detail, with the episode continuing with vomit and bloody scenes later on.
Taking to social media, one viewer complained: “Oh God the vomiting Immediately. Stop it.”
Another shared: “That was gross, just put me right off my supper ffs.”
“Oh my stomach. I can’t watch people vomiting,” said a third.
As the episode progressed, Nikki and her forensic team delved into the cause of the illness on the plane which was uncovered as a deliberate attack.
The complaints also come as the start of this latest series was hit with complaints as Jack Hodgson and Dr Nikki Alexander’s office romance making an appearance at work.
Nikki, played by Emilia Fox, and Jack, played by David Caves, have been dating for three series of the crime drama, but their latest scenes have appeared to irk viewers with them getting touchy feely in the office.
Writing on Twitter, one viewer wrote: “First ep back and they are acting like teenagers. Literally magnetised to each other.”
