Detailed Bias Analysis

Leans Traditional
Primary
While the film critiques police corruption and institutional failure, its central solution champions individual responsibility and heroism over systemic reform, aligning with right-leaning values of individual agency.
The movie features a visibly diverse cast that reflects a modern society, without explicitly recasting traditionally white roles for DEI purposes. Its narrative primarily focuses on institutional critique rather than explicitly framing traditional identities negatively or making DEI themes central to its core message.
Secondary
The series includes a minor character who is lesbian, but her identity is not explored in depth. The portrayal is neither overtly positive nor negative, serving as an incidental characteristic without significant narrative impact on the show's themes or plot.
The show features a transsexual character, Vihan Malhotra, who is a murder victim. Her trans identity is acknowledged but not central to the plot, which focuses on the crime investigation. The portrayal avoids strong positive or negative framing, treating her death seriously without explicitly affirming or denigrating her identity.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
Line of Duty is an original British police procedural drama. All its characters were created specifically for the show and do not derive from any prior source material, historical figures, or legacy adaptations. Therefore, no character's gender could have been swapped from a pre-established canon.
Line of Duty is an original British television series with no prior source material, historical figures, or previous adaptations. All characters were created for the show, meaning there is no established canonical race to be altered.
