** The police officers have "Always remember to keep your ears and eyes open!". Typically followed by them bumping into something and giving it a ticket.

* SlapstickKnowsNoGender: At first, Daddy Pig would get into embarrassing situations due to his status as a BumblingDad. However, later episodes would have it happen to Mummy Pig on occasion. Daddy Pig would then lampshade that he thought it only happened to him.

* CallBack: In "Winter Games", the characters are on a ski trip and Mummy Pig is cautious not to inadvertently ski down a mountain and into her house like she did in "Snowy Mountain". She ends up doing that again, going through and out of the other end of the house and into the playgroup.

* AWizardDidIt: Played with near the end of "Shopping". A chocolate cake is scanned, and it turns out it wasn't on the list. Daddy Pig confesses to getting it off-screen despite it not being clearly shown in the cart.

''Peppa Pig'' is a British pre-school animated television series created, directed and produced by Astley Baker Davies (the same team that made ''WesternAnimation/TheBigKnights'' and who also make ''WesternAnimation/BenAndHollysLittleKingdom'') and distributed by Creator/EntertainmentOne. Debuted in 2004 on Creator/Channel5 with new episodes premiering as of August 2021, and [[LongRunners renewed through at least 2027]].

It’s so popular in the UK in fact, it may as well be one of the only shows in history to have episodes premiere '''in cinemas'''. [[http://lifestyle.one/closer/entertainment/soaps/peppa-pig-first-cinema-experience-film/ No, we're not joking]]. The massive international popularity of the series resulted in the Chinese release ''Peppa Celebrates Chinese New Year'', with plans for a limited subtitled U.S. release as well.

** [[LampshadeHanging Even Peppa and her friends agree that they like it when their names start with the same letter as the name of the species they are.]] For example, in "Mummy Rabbit's Bump", Peppa and some of her friends get to pick out a name for Mummy Rabbit's baby. Pedro's suggestions elicit strong questioning or rejection.

* BannedInChina: Two of the episodes, "Mister Skinnylegs", and "Spider Web", which feature Mister Skinnylegs, are banned in Australia because numerous species of spiders there are very dangerous and encouraging viewers to befriend them.

''Narrator:''' Pirate talk is a bit difficult to understand.\\

* WhoWantsToBeWhoWantsToBeAMillionaire: In "Mr. Potato's Fruit and Vegetable Quiz", as Peppa and Suzy argued over a question about whether a tomato is a fruit or a vegetable, Mr. Potato took out a mobile phone and suggested that they "Call A Friend". Answering the call (and the question) was no other than Edmond.

* AWizardDidIt: Played with near the end of "Shopping". A chocolate cake is scanned, and it turns out it wasn't on the list. Daddy Pig confesses to getting it off-screen despite not being clearly shown in the cart.

** There are a number of history- and culture-based episodes in Season 6, namely "Chinese New Year" (which involves the characters engaging in several of its cultural traditions), "Roman Day" "Viking Day", and "Stone Age Granny".

** "Doctors" introduces the audience medical doctors, opticians, vets, dentists, and mechanics (or, well, "car doctors"), as well as their respective jobs and roles.

* ArtisticLicensePaleontology: In-universe -- when the kids visit the dinosaur exhibit in Potato City, Edmund Elephant points out that the dinosaurs they have living together didn't actually live in the same era. The kids also basically get the attendant of the dinosaur exhibit to admit that the only reason they have a dinosaur exhibit at ''Potato'' City is because it's awesome.

** Danny Dog's father has been sailing around the world. He decides to stay home when he returns during the series.

* DoubleStandard: In-universe; in "Fathers' Day", Mummy Pig jokingly tells her children that Mothers' Day is a real day and Fathers' Day is a "made-up modern thing".
** She isn't too wrong though, because Fathers' Day only emerged in the UK after WWII, while Mothers' Day had biblical roots.

* FrigidWaterIsHarmless: One episode has the characters going to the beach in the snow, and Madame Gazelle swims in the sea with her swimsuit on and doesn't get hypothermia. While the others don't want to swim due to finding it unpleasantly cold, hypothermia isn't brought up.

* NoEnding: "Boomerang" (the final part of the Australian Holiday) ends with Peppa and Kylie discussing how the holiday was going so far, ending with the narrator stating that they have had "the best holiday ever". Cue ending credits, thus not giving a "returning back home" episode as with the Italian Holiday 4-parter.

** But then, we see the 2012 episode "Snowy Mountain"'s events (Mummy Pig skiing into her house) portrayed as the previous year to the 2022 episode "Winter Games"'s events.

* MrExposition: In many episodes, the Narrator explains the audience what's going on to the audience. In the episode "Winter Games", he points out the different winter sports equipment the characters are using, such as skis, [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monoski monoskis]], and snowboards. However, most of the time, he's NarratingTheObvious.

* EverythingsBetterWithSparkles: The children certainly seem to think so in-universe; in the episode "School Project", when all the children at playgroup submit their artistic projects, a vast majority of the cast and their parents are covered in glitter from decorating the projects. Peppa's parents at least attempt to persuade her to remove glitter from the design, but she refuses.

* BlindWithoutEm: Daddy Pig & Pedro Pony. When both lose their glasses in separate episodes, they have a hard time telling what's what and who's who.

%%* FarSideIsland: In "Desert Island".

* SchoolPlay: Peppa's class acts out Little Red Riding Hood for the parents. Then, Pedro develops PerformanceAnxiety; Madame Gazelle joins him on stage.
