When a Jehovah's Witness calls at my door and I explain that I don't believe in God, am I likely to get arrested as a result? What if I criticise their beliefs with regard to blood transfusions?

Actually, it is fairly relevant what did or did not happen - it's what's normally called "evidence".
The CPS feel there is enough evidence to bring a case against the couple, but then have not commented further - unlike the couple and their supporters, who obviously (and quite rightly) have their own slant on this.
btw, my personal thoughts on this are that if this was just a spirited discussion about each faith (merits and issues), it's really dumb to have a court case about - but, unfortunately, there is not enough information to validate this assumption.
