Mel Silver is no longer a regular cast member as she was thrown off a building and killed at the end of the last series.
I'm trying to type up seperate articles for all of the Cold Case members. I've started off with Mel Silver, but can't 'make' a side box with all of her personal details. Someone please clear my mess because I'm not very good at posting pictures up on Wikipedia...—Preceding unsigned comment added by Sutekh the Destroyer ( talk • contribs)
From Andrew Billen's "Last Night's TV" column in The Times today:
Researching this business of Boyd's son in Waking the Dead, I came across a new word. When a pilot for the series was made in 2000, Boyd was a married man with a baby. When it came back as a series he was single with a missing son. This is an example of "retconning", the changing of previously established facts in a work of serial fiction most common, says Wikipedia, in comic books. The other word for it would be cheating.
In other words, a newspaper used this article for research. Bradley0110 ( talk) 18:14, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
Does any one know how this programme got its title? If s/he does, it would be good if it could go in the article, as at the moment, the article lacks this information. ACEOREVIVED ( talk) 19:43, 22 February 2012 (UTC)
I have no official response to this, but it seems somewhat clear. As a cold case unit, their job consists of raking the past; opening old wounds; waking the dead.
There is an window that reguards the trustworthyness of this article. I fail to see why. "Waking the dead" is shown through out the world (including USA) and is one of the best and most well-known criminal TV-series during the last decade, world-wide (until the final episode "Waterloo").

It seems that there have never been any DVD extras, or any WtD extras of any sort in any format? - 96.233.19.238 ( talk) 14:18, 31 March 2013 (UTC)
Ella commented in 2009: "Some Public Broadcasting Stations (PBS) are showing Waking the Dead. This is much better than BBC America since PBS will only cut a minute or so for time, if even that much. The downside is that each PBS station is independent and does its own thing."
WGBH is cutting substantial amounts from their WTD broadcasts, even though the whole material would fit in an hour. The US DVD of season 6 opener Wren Boys is about 56 mins per half. GBH cut it to about 51 mins, leaving out most of the introduction to the new main character Dr Eve Lockhart. Very unfortunate! Why did they do this? Are they cutting all their WTD broadcasts this much? Are US DVD contents exactly the same as UK DVD contents? - 96.233.19.238 ( talk) 17:13, 5 May 2013 (UTC)
Distinctive opening/closing credits audio/video theme missing from 2000 pilot, then stayed same from first series through end of series nine. Who created this sound and look? - 71.174.175.150 ( talk) 21:43, 3 December 2014 (UTC)
