STRICTLY Come Dancing winner Rose Ayling-Ellis is set to shock telly fans after she’s knocked off her bike in her new big role.

Rose, who was born deaf, plays a deaf canteen manager who embarks on a new career reading the lips of criminals as they make confessions.
But after filming got underway last month, Rose’s most recent scenes in front of the cameras have become much more heart-stopping.
Rose’s character in the six-part crime drama, Alison Brooks, was seen climbing on her bike as she left her job in a bar.
Wearing jeans, a wooly jumper and red puffa jacket, she looked safe as houses thanks to her white cycling helmet.
As the daylight slipped away, however, Alison was struck by a red Volkswagen car being driven by a man.
Alison was flung from her push bike but, thankfully for Rose, there was a crash mat in place to protect her fall.
Code Of Silence is Rose’s first big acting gig since she walked away from her role as Frankie Lewis in EastEnders in 2021.
Viewers will watch as Alison turns to a new career after struggling to make ends meet working in both a bar and a police canteen.
She is also trying to support her deaf mum Julie (Fifi Garfield) when she suddenly finds herself being “pulled into a high-stakes police investigation”.
ITV‘s synopsis of the show reads: “DS Ashleigh Francis (Charlotte Ritchie) asks that she use her lip-reading skills to monitor a dangerous criminal gang.
“As her interpretation of their covert conversations becomes central to the investigation, Alison is plunged into an exhilarating new world.
“Her role quickly becomes key to unlocking the police case, but her feelings become complicated when she finds herself drawn to one of the suspects, Liam Bayne (Kieron Moore).
“Despite knowing the risks and the growing threat to her personal life, Alison can’t let go.”
Code Of Silence, penned by Baptiste writer Catherine Moulton, is set to premiere on ITV1/ ITVX in 2025.
Speaking about the role, Rose said: “I first read Catherine Moulton’s script it was obvious that her first-hand experiences and understanding has enabled her to write a truly authentic character and I knew I had to be a part of this project.”
After bowing out of EastEnders in 2021, Rose became the first deaf contestant to win Strictly Come Dancing.
She has also appeared on Casualty and was the first deaf presenter of a live sports event, hosting part of this year’s Paralympic Games in Paris.
Rose was awarded an MBE in the King’s Birthday Honours for ‘voluntary services to the deaf community.’
