BREAKING: ITV Confirms Season 2 of Cɾime Drama Code Of Silence – BUT the cancellation of Grantchester sparks controversy!
ITV has finally confirmed the fate of Code Of Silence after its booming ratings as lead star Rose Ayling Ellis penned an emotional statement to viewers.
The cr1me dr@ma, which stars the former EastEnders actress, burst onto screens earlier this year to much fanfare.
It saw Rose, 30, play deaf worker Alison Woods, who works in both a police canteen and a local bar while caring for her deaf mother to make ends meet.
Woods then becomes key to a police investigation when she translates a cr1minal g@ng’s c0nversations as she finds herself drawn to one of the main suspects.
Kieron Moore, Charlotte Ritchie, Andrew Buchan, Nathan Armarkwei Laryea, Joe Absolom, and Fifi Garfield also starred in the first series.
Following a nail-biting finale, ITV has confirmed that Code Of Silence will return for a second series.

The broadcaster also revealed a whopping 7.5 million viewers tuning into the first episode alone on TV, while over 20 million streams have been recorded across the full box set on ITVX.
In an emotional statement to fans, Rose confirmed she will reprise her role, writing: ‘I’m so proud that Code of Silence has been recommissioned.
‘The response to the first series has been incredible, and it means so much to be part of a drama that not only keeps audiences on the edge of their seats, but also puts a Deaf character at the heart of the story.
‘I’m really excited to see where Alison’s journey goes next and to be working again with the wonderful cast, crew and creative team behind the show.’
Development on the second series has kicked off, with ITV planning to begin filming next year, meaning fans will have a lengthy wait before they can enjoy new episodes.
ITV’S drama commissioner, Callum Dziedzic said: ‘We are unbelievably proud of Code of Silence, and it’s been a joy seeing audiences embrace it – especially their love for the skilful, headstrong, and effortlessly loveable Alison.
‘Rose brings her to life with real charm and depth, and Catherine’s brilliant concept gave her the perfect world to step into. We can’t wait to share another gripping case, with Alison’s talents and perspective delivering a thr1ller that’s pulse-pounding, distinctive, and like nothing else on TV.’
Code Of Silence’s renewal comes just a day after ITV announced Grantchester has been axed after a whopping 11 series on air.

Making its debut in 2014, the show, which also airs on PBS in America, stars Robson Green as Geordie alongside Rishi Nair as Alphy.
Confirming the show’s end, Daisy Coulam, writer, series creator and executive producer, said: ‘At its heart, Grantchester is a show about the power of friendship and love.
‘We’ve been so lucky over the last 11 series to experience that on and off screen. For over a decade now – cast and crew (many who’ve been there since the beginning) have met each Summer to film.
‘And it’s been an absolute joy. Thank you to James Runcie for entrusting us with his characters. Thank you to the lovely people of real Grantchester.
‘Thank you to everyone who’s been a part of the show in any way – big or small. I’ll miss you terribly.’
