Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

This is a documentary-style police procedural largely focused on real-life cases and events. It doesn't appear to sacrifice narrative for ideology or force representation, participants are law enforcement and suspects, chosen by circumstances rather than identity politics.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The show generally portrays police, law, and order in a grounded way without overt subversion of family, faith, or British cultural norms. Occasionally social commentary pops up, but nothing heavy-handed or pushing a one-sided agenda.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Mildly Woke

What is this?

While the show tends to stay neutral and observational, some viewers may find that it, like much of British factual TV, shies away from deeply exploring dissenting worldviews about policing. Still, there's little clear villainization of traditional perspectives.
