Line 35:
* [[Cut His Heart Out with a Spoon]]: Threatened by Guy to Mac if he told anyone that he was a bridesmaid when he was five.
* [[The Ditz]]: Harriet Schulenburg manages to forget either her kids or an article of clothing in about every episode. She once arrived at work and a cat jumped out of her bag:
{{quote|
* [[Drama Bomb Finale]]: The end of series two, and the tone of the series finale/special.
* [[Driven to Suicide]]: {{spoiler|Alan and Joanna so they do get caught by the police. The extended ending shows they weren't very successful at dying though.}}
Line 45:
* [[The Fun in Funeral]]: Sue wears a bunny costume to {{spoiler|Angela's}} funeral and Martin shares his thoughts and feelings through the medium of interpretive dance.
* [[Harp of Femininity]]: Angela plays one to Grade 7, while her more [[Tomboy|tomboyish]] housemate Caroline struggles to get a sound out of her flute:
{{quote|
* [[Harpo Does Something Funny]]: The scenes between Sue and Guy, as both of the actors are improv actors. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-w9h815tf3k Example].
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: [[Peep Show|Johnson]] as Lyndon and [[Peep Show|Sophie]] as Harriet, [[Black Books|Fran]] as Caroline, [[Spaced|Brian]] as Alan, and [[Coupling|Susan Walker]] as Angela, while John Oliver (of ''[[The Daily Show]]'' and ''[[Mock the Week]]'') plays a car salesman in the first episode.

* [[Luke, I Am Your Father]]: It is revealed that one of the reasons {{spoiler|Martin can still practice medicine despite being pretty bad is because he is Joanna's unwanted son. Taken [[Up to Eleven]] during the series one finale with Joanna discovering Guy is her son ''after having sex with him.''}}
* [[Master of the Mixed Message]]: Mac is aware that Caroline is besotted with him and takes pleasure in teasing her over it, though he obviously does have some feelings towards her. She puts up with it for a long time but eventually confronts him about his cruel behaviour.
Line 83:
* [[Mistaken for Gay]]: In the special, while Joanna and Alan are hiding out in the caravan park, a man thinks Alan's gay because of "the shorts and 'tache", Joanna doesn't correct him and so the man promptly invites Alan on a walk by the river.

Line 109:
* [[Sorry, I'm Gay]]: After being dumped by their respective girlfriends, Jake the complementary therapist and Lyndon sit together in the bar.

{{quote|
* [[Squick]]: Among many examples, Dr. Statham eating a gall bladder mid-operation and Guy {{spoiler|accidentally having sex with his own mother}}.
* [[Stalker with a Crush]]: Sue White ''is'' this trope. The scene in which she makes a clay statue of Dr. Mac and considers differently sized genitalia is but one shining example.

Line 126:
