** Series 1: "Edgar" is about a well-respected doctor who is revealed to be a SmugSnake pedophile who raped and murdered his stepdaughter after sexually abusing her, and ultimately gets caught due to SayingTooMuch. "Stacey" is about a lower-class archetypal female [[LowerClassLout chav]] who is portrayed as immediately hateful due to her racist and homophobic attitudes, but she's revealed to be nobly TakingTheHeat (or trying to, anyway) for her abused sister who murdered her abusive husband, which fails after Hobbs figures she's lying about it. While the first two episodes were about domestic and personal crimes, "Jay" presents an OutsideContextProblem of a PunchClockVillain people smuggler.
** Series 2: "Julia" is about the wife of a SerialKiller who has slipped under everyone's radars due to her gender and sweet, nonthreatening personality. She's paired with Vanessa specifically due to these qualities, as literally nobody expects her to reveal some evidence that indicates she's the real murderer. "Alex" is about a reviled and smug ShadyRealEstateAgent that everyone assumes has committed a rape of which he's been accused (even his lawyer seems to think he's guilty). However (making it a comparison to "Edgar" which has the opposite conflict), the police figure out that he's actually innocent as part of a calculated ploy for money by his employee, but his life is ruined by the cloud of suspicion. "Danielle" is about a zealous Internet troll with noble intentions and shady methods. "Sandeep" is about a multiple murderer motivated just by money and impulse, and CrimeAfterCrime.
