** Also done with Very Duckworth's coffin, which is seen sliding seemingly unsupported out of the funeral parlor on ''Series/CoronationStreet''... after which it keeps going out onto the street, where Harry is thumbing for a ride. HilarityEnsues.

* YouMeddlingKids: * Referenced and parodied in a sketch making fun of Derek Acorah's ''[[ParanormalInvestigation Ghost Towns]]'', in which the ghost turned out to be Harry with a sheet over his head.

* ParrotExposition: The famous "cataracts" and "ear cataracts" sketches. It was about Val from ''Series/{{Emmerdale}}'' finding out she has cataracts and all of the characters who are there at the reveal repeat the word "cataracts?" over and over again. Later she's accused by a man for getting upset over a misunderstanding and she asks if her ears have cataracts as well. Both times Harry asks "[ear] cataracts?" and telephones somebody which starts a chain of characters or presenters repeating the word(s).

* AsideGlance (Unusual version in which Harry glances aside at a different camera and makes a quip after his own feeder line - usually him quoting the official description of a programme)

* ContinuityLockout: A lot of the RunningGag sections require knowledge of previous episodes (the jelly, which dates to a series 2 gag following mention on a history series of Victorians watching jelly wobble for entertainment; the knitted character, which was a one-off gag based on the doll's random appearance in ''Series/EastEnders''; and various fight competitors). A few of them are even jokes based on apparently cancelled programmes (''Chippy chiiiiips!'').

* RubeGoldbergDevice: A clip shows a detective, looking through a recently killed man's computer, and concluding "[[CaptainObvious He must have sent this before he died.]]" Cut to Harry Hill drinking a deadly poison, falling on a lever, and setting off a chain of events which ends with the e-mail being sent.
