After making waves on British television, Code of Silence has premiered in the US and is already impressing the international audience. The crime drama stars Rose Ayling-Ellis and tells the story of a deaf girl, Alison Woods, working at a police station canteen.
During an emergency investigation, Alison is called upon as a lip-reader to catch a set of criminals. Due to her talent, she starts working on an undercover mission for the police, but ends up making a strong connection with one of the criminals.
The exciting premise of the show is further accentuated by its music. There are a few songs that are featured in the show. Here are all the details you need about the Code of Silence soundtrack.

Meanwhile, the show also has an impressive background score, which has been composed by Dan Jones and Evelyn Glennie. Jones is a BAFTA winner who has previously worked on the music of The Miniaturist, Any Human Heart, The Life of Mammals, and Man in an Orange Shirt.
Glennie is a Polar Music Prize-winning percussionist who has battled deafness since her childhood, but that has not stopped her from making a name in the music industry. She has worked on the compositions of projects like A Dangerous Journey, Golf in the Kingdom, and Finding Altamira.
Talking about how she felt working on the ITVX drama, Glennie posted a statement on her official website, which read:
“When I was invited to co-compose the music score with the hugely talented Dan Jones for Code of Silence, a 6-part ITV drama centred around a lip-reading protagonist, the opportunity felt rather personal. This wasn’t merely a creative challenge. It was a homecoming.”
“A rare and meaningful convergence of my lived experience and artistic practice. A chance to explore two of my most intimate languages: the visual articulation of a human face, and the visceral, tactile experience of sound.”
All six episodes of Code of Silence premiered on ITVX on May 18, 2025. Over two months later, the show started streaming in the US on BritBox, with the first two episodes being released on July 24, 2025.
