It’s fast becoming the year of Rose Ayling-Ellis.
So what happened with the jewellery heist she was appointed to foil? And did she run off into the sunset with the badboy she got a little too close to? Here’s a look at what went down in the compelling final episode.
Code of Silence ending explained
Did Ben survive the shooting?
Unfortunately, Alison’s habit of defying orders from above leads to tragedy. Ignoring the calls to stay outside until help arrives, she wanders into the venue at the exact moment Liam is hurrying to recover the £5 million necklace from the laundry chute and the gun-brandishing crook he’s hoodwinked (Joe Absolom’s Braden) starts getting trigger-happy on the staircase.
Luckily, after a touch-and-go period, Ben survives the shooting. Unsurprisingly, his other half isn’t happy to see Alison pay him a visit, admonishing her in the hospital corridor for getting in too deep and for putting her loved one’s life at risk. Of course, this still doesn’t deter Alison from playing against the rules.
After blaming each other for their respective deceptions, Liam tries to convince Alison to become the Bonnie to his Clyde and flee for a new beginning in Brazil. But unwilling to spend her entire life on the run, she politely declines and they go their separate ways. But not for long.
Indeed, while returning to the pub she worked at to get more intel, Alison is kidnapped by a maniacal Braden who then FaceTimes Liam with an ultimatum: return the jewels he’d taken entirely for himself or his girlfriend is mincemeat.
What was Liam’s motive?
Although the shooter had been caught and incarcerated, Liam wanted his partners in crime Braden and Helen (Beth Goddard) to pay too. He used his IT skills to worm his way into one of their earlier ransomware attacks (and helped send another accomplice down in the process) and having gained their trust, he was tasked with playing an even more important role in their next dastardly scheme. “Money is the only thing Helen and Braden care about,” he explains to Alison. “That was the only way to hurt them.”
Property developer Helen had denied all knowledge about the heist when questioned by Marsh and DI Francis (Charlotte Ritchie), claiming she only knew Braden as an associate of her ex-husband’s she’d rejected a business offer from. But she’s soon held bang to rights thanks to a final display of craftiness from the gang’s ultimate traitor.
The final showdown
Having incriminated themselves in all kinds of nefarious activity beforehand, Braden and Helen are both left facing long stretches. Their acquaintance Holhurst (Andrew Scarborough) is also later revealed to have been hit with a charge of money laundering. But what about the star-crossed lovers?
