Description

S1E1: one character gives another a rape alarm and makes a comment which is victim blaming (“If you turn up Sunday, raped, the fault will lie solely at your door”). The rape alarm goes off twice in the episode and is joked about at the end. Offscreen, a male and female engage in sexual intercourse in a bathroom and it is implied that the female put a toilet brush into the male’s anus which he appears to be distressed about the next day. S1E5: characters discuss a mutual acquaintance at the breakfast table who is going on trial after his semen was discovered on a woman’s dress. Sub plot: two character’s went on a fishing trip which ended in the breakdown of their relationship and trauma. It is revealed what happened was ‘perfectly legal in this country’ but it is never revealed what occurred. Subplot: an adult male character is in a fairly long term relationship with a girl who is 17 but turns 18 in the course of the show. She is never shown on screen but is frequently referred to as having immature hobbies (e.g. colouring printed maps in, going to Brownies) Themes - Serial killers are frequently referred to as an ongoing joke.
