* [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]: While playing an on-flight game in 'Fitton', Martin (played by Benedict Cumberbatch, from BBC's [[Sherlock (TV)|Sherlock]], which hadn't been announced at the time) references 'The Hound of the Baskervilles'. Even better after series 2 of that show, as the context of the reference is removing one letter from books to make them different, and he changes 'Baskervilles' to 'Baskerville'... just as that show did for its adaptation of the story.
* [[Launcher of a Thousand Ships]]: Martin appears to be the fandom bicycle judging by the fanfiction (not helped by the fact that he is played by the very attractive [[Benedict Cumberbatch]]). The most popular pairing starts with Martin/Douglas, then Martin/Arthur and goes from there. There are a couple of Martin/Diego (from 'Johannesburg') fics, and Martin/Molly Hooper and Martin/Henry Knight are both becoming popular.
* [[The Woobie]]: Martin, mostly due to his luck or lack there of.
Line 6:
** A passenger makes him ''cry'' in 'Boston.'
** Arguably Arthur in 'St Petersburg'. His frantic attitude and desperate desire to please his father are completely out of character, and even Martin and Douglas notice it.

'''Arthur''': No, no, no it’s just that he’s er ...he’s er ...<br />
'''Douglas''': I think – I think what we may be witnessing here is Arthur attempting to describe something with an adjective other than “brilliant.”<br />
'''Arthur''': Yeah, n-n-no I wouldn’t say he was b-b – I mean obviously everyone’s br- – no, he’s not brilliant. He’s er ...he’s alright.<br />
'''Martin''': God.<br />
'''Douglas''': Yes.<br />
