The Knock is a television programme presented as a single episode. It falls within the broader genre of episodic drama, offering a self‑contained storyline that unfolds over its runtime. In this instalment, the investigative team is called to action after a severed hand washes up on the shoreline. The discovery prompts an immediate response, with the officers moving to secure the scene and begin the preliminary steps of their inquiry. At the same time, a more personal thread runs alongside the investigation. Tim asks Lucy to join him and Ashley for a double‑date, extending an invitation that intertwines the characters’ social lives with the unfolding case. Both the police work and the budding romance develop concurrently, creating a dual focus for the episode. While the team concentrates on the forensic and procedural aspects of the hand’s appearance, the characters navigate the dynamics of the double‑date, offering viewers a blend of professional and private moments within the same narrative framework.
