The departure of Clarissa in Silent Witness was such a sad moment for fans and some new viewers might be wondering what happened to her after she was referenced in season 28.
She might have left the long-running BBC drama five years ago, but who could ever forget Clarissa Mullery in Silent Witness? Played brilliantly by Liz Carr, she was a forensic examiner with a sense of humour and an eagle eye for detail. She joined the Lyell Centre team alongside forensic scientist Jack Hodgson and soon it was hard to imagine Silent Witness without her. Clarissa helped to solve some of the toughest cases, bringing enormous empathy and humour to them and her eventual departure from the drama was a poignant moment.
