Torts basically are civil wrongs. The law of torts provides remedies for people who have suffered some kind of harm at the hands of another - the tortfeasor. The behaviour might also be a crime or a breach of contract, depending on the circumstances.
Torts such as trespass and battery go back centuries, but this area of law really exploded in the 20th century with the classic House of Lords case of Donoghue v Stevenson. That case established a general remedy for negligent acts or omissions where a duty of care is found to exist between the plaintiff and the tortfeasor.
A duty of care is owed to what the law regards as your "neighbour", which is a metaphor for someone you could reasonably foresee would suffer loss by your behaviour. Long before modern consumer protection and product safety legislation, the common law of negligence now provided a remedy against a manufacturer, for example, by a reasonably foreseeable end-user, even though the end-user had no contract with the manufacturer.
This episode looks at the torts of negligence and trespass.
Trigger warning: it contains what some might regard as Dad jokes.
