Season 1:
s1 ep 4 a man starts to choke his adult son. Another person later makes a possibly triggering comment when they say the father got angry 'out of love' ______S1 ep 5 discussion of past abuse, but not shown on screen______domestic violence in S1 ep6______
Season 2: S2 EP1 none, a girl is scared of her father but this turns out to be a red herring_______

also be aware sometimes the murderer will be the victim's partner or love interest, even if there aren't any scenes of abuse in the episode.

Season 1: S1 ep5 - very brief comment that someone says they saw/smelt drugs, but nothing more. The rest of that episode and the other episodes of season 1 have no recreational drug use other than cigarettes and alcohol (The kervokian drug mentioned in the other comment is assisted suicide which is in episode * SPOILERS * S1 ep3)

Season 1: S1 ep1 - S1 ep4 NONE,_____ S1 ep 5 - a woman flirts with the main character when he's drunk and brings him home, he wakes up the next morning in her bed, realising they had sex (which was not shown itself). He does say later he remembered it, but because he feels a lot of guilt and sadness about it, and because he was drunk it may be triggering (the show also presents this as him cheating)______ This is also referred back to in S1 ep 6__________S2 EP1. Main story is to do with paedophilia - 15 year old girl -(no rape shown on screen though) - She was pregnant as a result of the pedophilia, and also be aware some characters blame the girl. Someone also makes a false allegation about sexual assault against the main character.

S1 ep 1 not exactly, but the protagonist is very close with a lady who spends a lot of time with him and they behave a lot like lovers - and she suddenly announces she has got engaged to someone else. This remains a theme throughout season 1______cheating in S1 ep2 _____ cheating in S1 ep4____cheating in s1 ep5 and revealed to partner in S1 ep6

S1 Ep1 no, but they at first think the victim died of suicide, and beware potential trigger that because it's set in the 1950s, other characters consider this a 'sin' - however the vicar is kind about it. Revealed not to be suicide but murder. _____s1 ep2 NONE_____S1 ep3 (SPOILERS) assisted suicide, but not on screen _______s1 ep4: no, but a house is on fire and a woman is inside sitting down upset and doesn't want to leave (she's rescued)______S1 ep5 NONE_____S1 ep6 someone shoots themself_____S2 EP1 NONE

The show is set in 1950s Britain and one of the main characters is a gay man. While some characters turn a blind eye to this, there is a lot of homophobia, as would be expected from society of that era.
