violence
One man strikes another’s knee with a mallet, without bloody detail. A person is beaten by a man wearing a knuckleduster. The recap of previous episodes features a sequence in which a Black man is beaten by a pair of white skinheads, leaving his face bruised and bloodied. Discrimination is not condoned.
threat and horror
During a scene of strong threat, a frightened man is kidnapped, tied up, threatened with a gun, and subjected to physical violence. In another scene two men follow a drunk woman home and let themselves into her flat after she passes out; another person arrives later to find the flat burgled but the woman unharmed.

language
Use of strong language ('f**k') is accompanied by moderate ('cock') and milder terms such as 'knob', 'shit', 'Jesus' and 'hell'.
sex
A stylised but undetailed scene of strong sex occurs whilst a man is under the influence of illegal drugs, which appears to fuel his experience. Verbal references are made to a man's virginity, sex workers and sexually transmitted diseases.
discrimination
Reflecting the time period in which the series is set, two racist police officers violently attack a Black man in a prison cell, calling him the racist term 'n****r', hitting him with their batons and spitting on him. Racism is clearly not condoned by the work as a whole.
drugs
There are scenes of drug misuse, such as a woman preparing and injecting heroin and a man taking what he refers to as 'whizz' in pill form. References are made to drug addiction and misuse.
flashing/flickering lights
