Several episodes discuss rape.
In s1e1, it is implied (without being directly stated) that multiple children were raped by an older man / their father. Some of the 'jokes' from the episode are re-contextualised once this fact is known.
In s7e2, Alan is accused of assaulting a young girl in his classroom.
In s7e6, it is implied Ronnie was raped by his father. It is not directly stated, just very heavily implied.
Many episodes.
S1e1, the father is mentioned to have SA'd multiple children, including his own son.
S5e5, the main character / several characters experiences delusions as a result of childhood abuse.
S6e4, the daughter is implied to be 'hidden away' from the public, though the end implies this was not the case.
S7e5, Zach is slapped by his mother in a moment of tension between the two.
S7e6, Ronnie is implied to have been SA'd and gaslit by his father.
S8e5, Catherine is implied to have been forcably isolated by her mother, and experimented on.
S6 Ep5 'How do you Plead' an old man is dying and has a drip attached to his bed and a nurse who visits his home_________ Implied in S8 Ep 'The Last Weekend' that someone has terminal cancer
I'm not 100% if this counts, but SPOILERS in S7 EP1 'Merrily Merrily' a man knowingly risks hypothermia by swimming in freezing water to scatter a loved ones ashes and dies

S1 E3 Tom and Gerri - (spoilers)
A man is gaslit by a new flatmate to believe that everyone has forgotten about him and he is better off quitting his job and dropping out of society. This ruins his life.
In Wise Owl a pet cat does die and the process of subjecting it to taxidermy is spoken of and shown in great detail—but in cartoon form only. Still could be triggering for those with a soft spot for felines.
S8 Ep 'The Last Weekend' (not bugs, but flies) **SPOILERS** someone is eaten alive by flies - we don't see it happen but see the lead up to it and hear screaming.

----------------'Sardines' (S1 Ep1): ***SPOILERS!***Adults reveal they were sexually abused as children ------ 'The Devil of Christmas' (S3 Ep1): **SPOILERS** not a sexual assault, but the twist ending could be triggering for survivors as it involves unconsensual snuff, and the woman is tied to a bed and gagged when it happens. -------'Riddle of the Sphinx' (S3 Ep3): a woman is drugged so she is is frozen but awake, then sexually assaulted **SPOILERS**- this story also involves a level of incest ---------'To have and to hold' (S4 Ep4): ***SPOILERS*** plot twist involving sexual slavery ------------- 'Thinking out loud' (S5 Ep5): **SPOILERS** a character reveals they were sexually assaulted by their father, which led to mental illness. ---S6 Ep 1 'Wuthering Heist' a man is kissed without warning, but he is ok with it__________ (S6 Ep 2) 'Simon Says': **SPOILERS** a man is nearly raped by coercion---------(S6 EP3 = SAFE) ------------ (S6 EP4 = SAFE) ---------(S6 EP5 = SAFE)-------------(S6 Ep6) 'Last Night of the Proms': a man is dry humped by a woman without consent, and later another man searches him (with clothes on) and his hand lingers on his genitals-----------(S7 Ep 1 is SAFE)_______ S7 Ep2 'Mr King': a teacher is accused of sexually assaulting a girl he teaches (it is a false accusation).

while you don't see anything explicitly, at the end of season 1 ep 1 sardines, there are very strong suggestions multiple characters were burnt to death.
No one is buried alive in S6 Ep2 ('Simon Says'). I don't know if the other comment is thinking of another episode instead?_______S8 Ep 'The Last Weekend' **SPOILERS** someone is buried up to their neck in concrete

S3 E6 Private View (SPOILERS) a character is attacked and their eyes are removed. They are shown bleeding from their eye sockets, and their eyes are displayed in a specimen jar.
Spoilers for "Hurry Up And Wait", which revolves around a baby abduction - any hopes that the baby may still be alive and well are dashed by the final image.

There are multiple episodes with portrayals of people with mental illness as violent, sometimes used as a shock tactic or plot twist at the end of episodes.
SPOILERS _____________ in particular S1 Ep3 and S5 Ep 5, also S6 ep4.
No suicide in S7 Ep1, but a character without warning jumps in the water, and I thought for a second they had attempted suicide, but it's a false alarm. This episode is more along the lines of 'a character sacrifices themselves' though, so see further info under that.______(S7 Ep2 I've not watched)___________(S7 EP3 = SAFE)_________(S7 EP4 = SAFE)______ Suicide in S7 EP5 'A Random Act of Kindness'.___________S7 Ep6 'Wise Owl': the very first scene, a man sits in a bath with a radio, planning suicide, but stops when he hears a knock on the door

fat jokes in s6 ep4 'Hurry up and wait'____________s8 ep 4 'Love is a Stranger' a woman is pressured to join a weight loss program, not sure if fat jokes but definitely was fat shaming
In "Hurry Up and Wait" a female character is accused of being a boy conditioned by parents to present as female, based on superficial reasoning (she has facial hair and is socially awkward). This is proven false, but not before she has her gown forcibly opened, exposing her breasts to those present.
Season 1, Episode 2 - A Quiet Night In: A door-to-door salesperson introduces himself with a card that reads "I am deaf and dumb". Worse, the man is lying.
