James May is a man on a mission.
Line 13:
* [[Bad Date]]: Charlie and Cassandra's date seems to be going well until {{spoiler|Cassandra reveals she already has a boyfriend}}.
* [[Bread, Eggs, Milk, Squick]]: James's speculation on what might been cooked in the kitchen of the haunted castle:
{{quote| "Spam fritters...poor quality sausages...bits of children..."}}
* [[British Brevity]]: Series one had three episodes, and series two five episodes.
* [[Cat Scare]]: Actually a ''Bat'' Scare; one flies behind James and Tom at the castle and sends them running back into the safe room.
Line 46:
* [[Rearrange the Song]]: Each episode in series two ends with the theme being performed in a different style. The Reinventing The Boiler Suit segment also has a nifty and barely-recognisable techno version as background for the catwalk show.
* [[Rummage Sale Reject]]: James lampshades his taste for loud shirts during the introduction to the boiler suit segment, in which he has an entire rack of them he has worn over the years. Especially hilarious when he pulls out a certain legendary [[Mythology Gag|purple-and-pink striped jumper]]:
{{quote| '''James:''' Look at this thing. I've ''never even worn it.''}}
* [[Scare Chord]]: The motion detector that James sets up in the great hall of Lympne Castle later scares the crap out of him and Tom when they blunder into it during their nighttime exploration.
* [[Scarily Competent Tracker]]: A [[Real Life]] one, Ian Maxwell, chases after James and Oz after they "escape" from prison.
