* The TitleDrop from "Oh Shut Up And Eat Your Choc Ice". Eli comes across them driving a three-wheeler, mistakes Clegg in the passenger seat for a little kid and gives him money to "buy yourself a choc ice". Then in a BrickJoke later when Clegg complains, Seymour utters the episode title.

* In "Three Men and a Mangle", after the trio manage to get Nora Batty's mangle downstairs for disposal with a lot of effort and Seymour's tie is destroyed in the process, Nora starts musing on how it belonged to her mother and how it's a shame to get rid of it. Seymour replies stiffly "We are NOT taking it back up again!"
** The whole scene with the two policemen is hilarious, but especially how it starts, with them sitting in the car:
--> '''PC Cooper''': You know what I think the most important thing about being a policeman is?
--> '''PC Walsh (dreamily)''': ''...Love''.
--> ''(Cooper is about to continue, but just stops and gives him a weirded-out look)''
** They take the mangle in to a pub for a rest, where Eli mistakes it for 'a Mini that's been in a nasty accident' and the landlord has the memorable line:
--> '''Landlord:''' Everywhere else it's age of t'satellite--me, I'm still getting mangles!
