violence
A man lassoes another man’s neck, causing the man to come off his bike, in a brief and undetailed moment of mild violence. Another man’s neck is lassoed during a confrontation. There is an implication of domestic abuse in a scene that ends reassuringly.
threat and horror
In a slapstick moment of threat, a man wielding a machete chases people, and briefly holds the blade to a person's neck.
language
There is moderate bad language (‘prick’, ‘slut’), an implied use of strong language (‘f**k’) and milder terms including ‘bastard’, ‘God’, ‘Jesus’, ‘hell’ and ‘damn’.
sex
There is mild flirtatious behaviour and references to eloping and 'sugar daddies'.
discrimination
There is discriminatory language concerning mental health, and characters’ attitudes towards mental health often go unchallenged. A man pretends to have bad mental health in order to evade police.
suicide and self-harm
During an argument, a character makes a farcical reference to suicide.
rude humour
A man threatens to harm another man's genitals during a comic argument.
theme
There are themes of bereavement, references to the discovery of a dead body and scenes of emotional upset.
