=== Features tropes galore, including: ===
* [[Actor Allusion]]: The Narrator reminded us once that we weren't watching the real Prime Minister, but "that guy out of ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer|Buffy]]''."
* [[Adam Westing]]: The Narrator occasionally hints at his true identity: "With nothing to watch but repeats on the telly of ''[[Doctor Who]]'', ''Medics'' and that episode of ''[[Black AdderBlackadder]] II'' I was on..." The Narrator character is something of an exaggeration of [[Tom Baker]]'s real-life eccentric personality (albeit as "an old fascist," according to the creators).
* [[Back for Thethe Finale]]: All the students Linda insulted (even ones from deleted scenes) show up in the Series 3 finale.
* [[Bland-Name Product]]: The "vomiting ladies" sketches received complaints from the Women's Institute, who did not want their logo associated with a character portrayed as a right-wing bigot (and her put upon friend). From then on, the characters belonged to the fictional "Women's Association".
* [[Born in Thethe Wrong Century]]: The transvestites attempt to dress and act as Victorian "ladies".
* [[Breaking the Fourth Wall]]: The narrator occasionally does this, the most notable moment being when he encourages upset viewers to write down the names on the credits as they play (even pointing out his own) and make obscene phonecalls to them, [[Hilarity Ensues|someone does.]]
* [[British Accents]]
Line 63:
** Rosie O'Donnell, [[Paul Rudd]], [[The Police|Sting]] appear in Little Britain USA with [[Scrubs|Sarah Chalke]] in a deleted scene.
* [[Stage Mum]]: Sandra Patterson; with her son Ralph being the child she wants to be famous at any length.
* [[Stalker Withwith a Crush]]: Sebastian.
* [[Stealth Pun]]: Dennis Waterman's size-related gimmick may seem inexplicable until the remember the old adage: ''there are no small parts, only small actors'' - Dennis in a nutshell.
* [[Suspiciously Specific Denial]]: "I did not steal your red dress, take it home and wear it while hoovering."
