The Fence

There is strong language ('f**k', 'motherf**ker'), as well as milder terms such as 'bitch', 'prick', 'wanker', 'bastard', 'shit', 'bloody', 'bollocks', 'sod', 'piss', 'Jesus', 'Christ' and 'God'. There are also rude V-sign and middle finger gestures. Strong violence includes the brutal, but undetailed, kicking of a man after he is knocked from his bicycle. There are also references to domestic abuse as a man grabs his girlfriend’s face in intimidating fashion, and in the sight of bruises on the body of a young man from a dysfunctional family home. There is moderate threat from characters wielding weapons such as cleavers and baseball bats. There is brief breast nudity in glamour images on a wall. There is racist language by an unsympathetic character who calls a Black man a “wog”; a man makes a joke about his friend being “gay” because he eats brown bread. Discrimination is not endorsed by the work as a whole.
