threat and horror
A character loses temporary control of their car and veers through oncoming traffic. A person accidentally attacks a loved one while experiencing a nightmare.

Strong language ('f**k') features, as well as milder terms such as 'bitch', 'bloody', 'bastard', 'piss', 'arse', 'arsehole', 'screw', 'God' and 'Christ'.
sex
Moderate sex references include remarks about pornography, erections and 'sleeping with' people. There are brief, discreet scenes of sex.
discrimination
There are occasional comic scenes in which characters behave in an insensitive manner towards people diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease.
suicide and self-harm
There is a passing, implied reference to suicide.
injury detail
A man has a bloody facial injury following a fall.
theme
Upsetting scenes are centred on people living with Parkinson's who struggle with the condition and the effects of its treatment, which include harmful impulsive behaviour and depression. However, the theme as a whole is treated with compassion and humour. There are also scenes of bereavement.
