Sex & Nudity

  • A rhyming slang term for masturbation is used.
  • Gerry imagines the sort of sexual antics that might have gone on in a movie star's dressing room. Jack seems bored by Gerry's thoughts.
  • "The little tart jumped on Don's casting couch to get her first job in pictures."
  • Brian talks about not having passionate kisses at the movies with his mate Jimmy. The others, who only have half the picture, are a little taken aback. Jimmy also took Esther to see Lawrence of Arabia and snogged passionately, missing most of the film.
  • The team watches an online filmclip. Gerry claims to be familiar with the film's theme - Bondage, Discipline, SadoMasochism - from his time on the vice squad. We only see very brief clips of the film.
  • Sandra and Gerry stumble upon a man and woman kissing passionately in their workplace after hours.

Violence & Gore

  • In a film clip a man is seen to slap a woman across the face. He then punches a man in the face. The clip is repeated a couple of times.
  • A photo is seen of the body of a man who has been stabbed in the chest with a pair of scissors. Later another body is located. It has been embalmed.
  • A truck is laden with gory prosthetic body parts for use in film production. More are seen later in a workshop.
