Line 26:
* [[Fan Service]]: See [[Modesty Towel]].
* [[Gold Digger]]: Juliet decides to try and get back on David's good side by sleeping with him. This is [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshaded]] by Alex: "I'd try the same thing, only I'm not his type".
* [[Hey ItsIt's That Guy]]: That's right, [[Star Wars|Obi Wan Kenobi]] and [[Doctor Who (TV)|the Doctor]] used to be flatmates, and [[Rebus|DI John Rebus]] was their local copper. Peter Mullan also has an early role as one of the thugs hunting down the money.
* [[Freak Out]]: Mild-mannered David completely loses it after being coerced into dismembering Hugo's corpse and rendering his face unrecognisable with a hammer.
* [[Hint Dropping]]: When David tries to escape with the suitcase full of money Alex suggests to Juliet that they should "let him take it all". This leaves her to discover far too late that {{spoiler|Alex has replaced the cash with newspaper}}.
Line 44:
* [[Terrible Interviewees Montage]]: At the beginning, when the three leads are interviewing for a new flatmate. [[American Idol|Simon Cowell]] could have been taking notes.
* [[Unsympathetic Comedy Protagonist]]: All three of them.
* [[Where the Hell Is Springfield?]]: The opening voiceover states that "this could have been any city," though wherever it is, it's apparently in Scotland.
** [[Word of God]] says it is set in Edinburgh. Though quite a bit of it was filmed in Glasgow.
* [[Wouldn't Hit a Girl]]: {{spoiler|averted by David when he punches Juliet, played straight by Alex when he tells David he shouldn't have hit her}}
