The crew talk about a Big Red Lobster in a mess of tangents on fish and LOBBO!
Article of Conversation: The Big Lobster
Tropes:
- Attention Deficit... Ooh, Shiny!: The episode doesn't begin until about 3 minutes into the video, as the crew manages to go off on a tangent about living underwater and throwing fish behind Tom via image compositing.
- Classically-Trained Extra: The crew discussing kookaburra sounds being used for monkeys in old jungle films leads to Chris impersonating a kookaburra in a monkey costume muttering "I went to bloody RADA, luv, I don't know why I do this."
- Contrived Coincidence: The article is about "The Big Lobster"; mere moments before all of the lads were talking about Roger Daltrey owning a fish farm filled with lobsters.
- Double Take: Tom reads out that the Big Pie is located next to a drive-through pie shop, then immediately re-reads the "drive-through pie shop" part in utter disbelief.
- Kaiju: Discussed; after being told that the titular lobster is bigger than a man, Gary quips that "it would have ran over Tokyo by now".
- Shaped Like Itself: When talking about large statues of things in Australia, Tom mentions having visited the Big Pineapple. Which is a big pineapple.
- Take That!: To Australia, where the crew put on awful accents and insult various parts of the country (Matt even calls them all convicts). When Tom mentions that Australia has drive-through pie shops, Gary and Matt immediately apologise to Australians and salutes them for making something "Yorkshire could learn from".
- Visual Gag: All of them miming lobsters by doing hand gestures, which Gary immediately lampshades.
- What Are You in For?: Gary mentions finding a record of a man deported to Australia for stealing the same duck three times, and jokes about this being an embarrassing thing to admit when this question is asked by the other convicts.
- What the Hell Is That Accent?: Chris attempts an Austrian accent, which even he admits to being baffled by.
