Apparently the female lead is verbally harassed at some point. There are some scenes where sexist things are discussed so maybe the harassment happens during one of those scenes.

The main character was bullied very badly as a child and continues to receive verbal hate as an adult.

Christopher, Alan’s childhood best friend and crush, dies, but nothing is shown. He receives the news from his headmaster and there is nothing very triggering other than the fact that a character dies and it affects another one emotionally.

It is implied that the brother of one of teammembers at Bletchley Park dies.
Also... a very close friend of the main character dies.

As someone who is autistic and and lives with someone who is also autistic… it is very obvious to me that Alan Turing’s character is portrayed as autistic. He is not bullied for this specifically as it is never specified that he IS autistic, however he does get routinely bullied for his Autism traits in this film.

Turing's behaviour is depicted as a heavy autism-stereotype. He doesn’t understand jokes, takes common expressions literally, is very anti-social and unlikeable to many, and seems to not care about the emotions of others. According to some critiques, this is nowhere near a true representation of what the real Alan Turing actually was like.

It is not shown. But in the epilogue of the movie it is revealed (in text) that Alan Turing has committed suicide.

In the scene where Alan is stuff into the floor and nailed in, he has an anxiety attack. He has a few other when Christopher, the machine, is threatened to be taken away or shut down.

The main character has a flashback to his childhood when bullies forced him under the floorboards at his school and nailed the board back in place so he could not escape. He struggles to get out but is rescued by his friend.

Although very mildly, a police officer does refer to Alan Turing as a "poof", a British derogatory term for gay people.

The main character, who is revealed to be gay, kills himself after the movie ends. Nothing is shown on screen. He is also shown to be taking medicine that will chemically castrate him, which was the government’s punishment for gay men during that time and could be triggering.

A character tells the story of a girl giving him a b*****b but does not explicitly state that that is what the story is about. The dialogue only lasts about 10 seconds.

In flashbacks, the protagonist's "friend" had bronchitis. The headmaster implied that he'd been ill for a long time.

It is based on a real life story, and Alan Turing died of cyanide poisoning, widely believed to be suicide. So it does not have a happy ending
