‘Code of Silence’ Writer Catherine Moulton Knows: “Lip Readers Are Detectives”
‘Code of Silence’ Writer Catherine Moulton Knows: “Lip Readers Are Detectives”
When you watch the crime drama Code of Silence, which premiered on ITV and streamer ITVX in the U.K. on May 18 and will hit streaming service BritBox in the U.S. and Canada in July, you quickly realize that lip reading is even harder, and much less of a science, than you may have believed. One big reason for this reality check embedded throughout the detective thriller series is the experience of partially deaf creator and writer Catherine Moulton (Baptiste, Hijack) and the show’s deaf star Rose Ayling-Ellis who portrays the protagonist Alison, a deaf police canteen worker who gets tasked with a role in a sting operation due to her lip-reading skills.

I highly recommend Code of Silence. Pacey plot, great central performances and raised important issues about the deaf.

If you’d like a recommendation on #WorldBookDay then ‘Three’ by Jennifer Jenkins gets a big thumbs up from us. This captivating novel tells the story of the Eyam plague, but through the perspectives of three different women. Definitely one for your TBR list. Find a copy in our #LocalStudies library.
