* [[Alternate Character Interpretation]]: Reverend gave Lord Victor a golden bullet to kill the Were-Rabbit. He may not be so pure then.
* [[Complete Monster]]: In ''A Matter of Loaf and Death'': [[Serial Killer|Piella Bakewell]] is the [[Bitch in Sheep's Clothing|seemingly-sweet]] villain of this short. After gaining too much weight to keep her job as a model, Piella [[Disproportionate Retribution|murders bakers associated with the company she worked with]], killing twelve in total and keeping their hats as trophies. Seeking to kill "a baker's dozen", she seduces the kind-hearted Wallace and makes multiple attempts on his life while trying to create a wedge between the man and his protective dog Gromit by [[Wounded Gazelle Gambit|framing him for attacking her]]. During the short's climax she attempts to kill Wallace with a bomb disguised as a gift, and tries to murder Gromit and her own dog Fluffles, who she [[Domestic Abuse|heartlessly abuses]], when they intervene. With none of her [[Laughably Evil|comedic moments]] detracting from the viciousness of her villainy, Piella stands out as [[Knight of Cerebus|a very dark antagonist]] in an [[Vile Villain Saccharine Show|otherwise light-hearted franchise.]]
* [[Ensemble Darkhorse]]: Shaun the Sheep from ''A Close Shave'', to the point he [[Spin-Off|got his own series]] in 2007. ''[[Shaun the Sheep]]'' in turn had its own [[Ensemble Darkhorse]] in the form of Timmy the lamb, who got his own kiddy series, ''[[Timmy Time]]'', in 2009.
* [[Germans Love David Hasselhoff]]: The series is quite popular with the French, who enjoy the quirky British humour.
Line 9 ⟶ 7:
* [[Karma Houdini]]: {{spoiler|Wendolene in her poaching sheep to get free yarn. In fact she expresses no suprise as her robot dog is killing sheep en masse to make dog food}}.
** {{spoiler|Fluffles is also implied to have been assisting Piella murder at least a dozen bakers. Both examples are shown to be rather remorseful however, unwillingly dragged into the act by the much more callous [[Big Bad]], and eventually draw the line after it goes too far.}}
{{quote|
** {{spoiler|Wendolene didn't exactly get away without a punishment if you consider the fact that Preston actually tried to kill her and ground her up into dog food when she finally tried to stop him.}}
* [[Moral Event Horizon]]: During his malfunctioning, {{spoiler|Preston attempts to turn Wendolene and the sheep into DOG MEAT!!!}} Surely ''that'' qualifies.
Line 20 ⟶ 18:
** {{spoiler|''"Oh Gromit, [[Tear Jerker|I don't wanna be a giant rabbit!!"]]''}}
** Twitch, the scared, frightened pup in ''Muzzled!''
** "The Cooker" from ''A Grand Day Out'', the [[Designated Villain]] that just wanted to get to Earth and ski in it's mountains. Even though [[Throw the Dog
** Wallace at the end of A Close Shave. After everything that they had gone through up to that point to [[Earn Your Happy Ending|earn their happy ending]], Wallace finds out that {{spoiler|Wendolene is allergic to cheese and can't stand it at all}}.
