Line 56:
* [[Cordon Bleugh Chef]]: Letitia Cropley is known as the "Queen of Cordon Bleugh" for her penchant for making disgusting-looking ''(not to mention tasting)'' recipes such as Marmite cake, peanut butter and anchovy sandwiches, tripe salad, chocolate coated cod roe and parsnip brownies, thus making her the [[Trope Namer]]. She also bred her own snails, apparently for Bread and Butter Pudding Surprise.
* [[Crossover]]: ''Dibley'' did one with ''[[Ballykissangel (TV)|Ballykissangel]]'' ("Ballykissdibley") for [[Comic Relief]].
* [[Curse Cut Short]]: ''And He shall be thy {{spoiler|fuccour}}'', due to the whole [http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_s:Long s|S=F thing]].
** The children carol singers.
{{quote| '''Children''':(singing) While shepherds watched their flocks by night all sitting on a bank...<br />
Line 64:
** And in the episode with the 'Great Storm', when Hugo unexpectedly shows up in Geraldine's living room.
{{quote| '''Geraldine''': OH, FU- crying out loud, Hugo!}}
* [[Cut a Slice, Take The Rest]]: Geraldine does this with a chocolate Christmas log in one episode.
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: David. Geraldine does this too, but she isn't as much of a jerk about it.
** Owen has his moments too
Line 82:
* [[Everything's Better With Chocolate]]: [[Trademark Favorite Food|Geraldine loves chocolate.]] She has to give up chocolate for Lent, including a gigantic (and delicious looking) bar of Cadbury Dairy Milk.
* [[Fairytale Wedding Dress]]
* [["Falling in Love" Montage]]: Parodied, with the famous puddle scene.
* [[Fourth Date Marriage]]: {{spoiler|Geraldine and Harry.}}
* [[Fly At the Camera Ending]]: The last episode ends with Geraldine ''flying into the air and towards the camera''.
Line 101:
* [[Kissing Cousins]]: {{spoiler|Hugo and Alice, who's revealed -- at least to Geraldine, everyone else apparently already knew -- to be the daughter of his second cousin who was also called David.}}
* [[Last Request]]: {{spoiler|As Letitia lies on her deathbed, her dying request to Geraldine was that she take over from her as the Easter Bunny, taking chocolate eggs around the village each Easter. Hilariously, it was subsequently discovered that Letitia had made the same request of every member of the parish council.}}
* [[Last -Second Word Swap]]: When Geraldine is blindsided by someone who came into the room without knocking.
{{quote| '''Geraldine:''' Oh, fuc...rying out loud! }}
* [[Les Yay]]: [[In Universe]], In "Mery Christmas", first between Geraldine and Alice, and then between Geraldine and model Rachel Hunter. Alice misinterpreting the latter scenario causes the council to briefly think that the two are having a fling, which raises eyebrows.
Line 116:
* [[Overly Long Name]]: The vicar's full name in the series final is Geraldine [[Mary Poppins|Julie Andrews Dick Van Dyke Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Chim Chiminey Chim Chiminey Chim Chim Cher-ee]] Granger. Unsurprisingly, she's [[Embarrassing Middle Name|horribly embarrassed by it]].
** An earlier episode reveals her name as [[Embarrassing First Name|Bodicea]] Geraldine Granger.
* [[Double Standard Rape (Male On Male)]]: One of the jokes that Geraldine tells Alice is the one in which Superman sees Wonder Woman lying naked on a rooftop and attempts to have sex with her in the shortest time possible. Wonder Woman asks what happened, and then the Invisible Man climbs off her and says "I don't know, but it hurt a lot." Alice doesn't laugh, pointing out that this joke besmirches Superman's reputation by implying that he committed homosexual rape on the Invisible Man, which she doesn't consider funny.
{{quote| '''Alice:''' And quite frankly I think you should be ashamed of yourself.<br />
''(Alice leaves) (beat)''<br />
