4 | * The jaguar from the original short, both in how he's animated and the way he says "I need ''space''!" Apparently, this was a friend of Nick Park's from Brazil who was visiting England and hated it. |
5 | * One of the ravens in the Birds episode apparently thinks birds fly the way Literature/PeterPan does: By having a happy thought! Being happy most of the time. And this is coming from a bird associated with darkness and grimness. |
6 | ** They also talk in an incongruously light, camp manner. |
7 | * The episode on sleep is bookended by a very sleepy tortoise voiced by a little boy who keeps yawning, blinking rapidly and even falling asleep mid-sentence while saying how much he is tired but hates sleep. |
8 | * The Vet episode is comedy gold: |
9 | ** One bit that stands out is the coughing horse on the table, saying that he's taken a lot of pills in his life - "About 23'000." That's a funnily specific number. |
10 | ** A big cat on a stool in the middle of a wrecked waiting room, talking into a microphone on a very long boom held by someone who is clearly shaking in fear off-camera. |
11 | ** Fluffy the hamster shares one story about how he had his head slammed in a door, requiring stitches. In the middle of describing it, he mentions that it happened on his ''birthday'', so casually that it almost feels like an afterthought. [[TheWoobie Poor guy.]] |
12 | * From "Pet Hates." |
13 | ** The interviewer has difficulty with the old bats. |
14 | --->'''Interviewer:''' What do you think about speed cameras?\ |
15 | ''<bats shrug>''\ |
16 | '''Bat #2:''' Eating?\ |
17 | '''Interviewer:''' ''Speed cameras''.\ |
18 | '''Bat #1:''' Sorry.\ |
19 | '''Interviewer:''' Um, ''speed cameras.''\ |
20 | '''Bat #1:''' Nope. Don't get it.\ |
21 | '''Interviewer:''' Do you know what speed cameras are?\ |
22 | '''Bat #1:''' [[{{Beat}} …]]Cucumbers?[[note]]"Cucumbers" sounds a bit like "Speed Cameras" [[AccentDepundent in a British accent]][[/note]] |
23 | ** When the seagulls are talking, [[BirdPoopGag a bit of seagull droppings]] [[CameraAbuse falls on the camera lens]]. |
24 | --->'''Seagull #2:''' What's that?\ |
25 | '''Seagull #1:''' Somebody's flushed a toilet upstairs. |
26 | * A Shar Pei voiced by an older South Asian gentlemen is often accompanied by a smaller silent Shar Pei implied to be his son who mostly shows his thoughts through nods, eyerolls and facepalms. |
27 | * The Geordie mouse riffing on calling everyone in Newcastle 'man' and that singing Rule Britannia turns you violent. |

31 | * The bulldog couple have an Odd couple thing that is so funny. |
32 | --> "What am I afraid of? Anyone who knows more about me then they should. And I married her, so I live in constant fear." (He says the last part with a smile and his wife right next to him.) |
33 | * Another moment from the US series, the gerbil (or possibly hamster, it's hard to tell) talks about a fear he had as a child that it both hilarious and slightly horrifying. |
34 | --> "As a child I was afraid that my parents were going to murder me. And once I had lived long enough and they didn't I guess I had a pretty much a trend going towards not being murdered. So I got over that pretty quick." |
35 | * In the US series, one of the elderly lions' answer to the question "Have you ever killed a man?" The pauses as he thinks about his answer are priceless. |
36 | --> "Killed a man...in anger?...You mean deliberately...with intent? An assassination?...Deliberately?...(raises a finger) [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial Never, never without a reason that was not normal]]." |
