** Blue Womp is almost flawlessly integrated alongside Orange Womp, both as a visual effect, and in their interactions together. At times you'll suspect actor Tony Walters actually had a twin brother. This is likely why the effect was only used in three episodes.

* AlternateCharacterInterpretation: [[YouAreWhatYouHate Steve is a coward with anger issues.]] Most of the show could be seen as him torturing the others for his amusement while he sits safely on the sidelines. He spends an awful lot of time threatening people from the safety of a camera, and half of the people he beats up are clearly much weaker than him. By Series Two he's started to believe his own lies.

* FridgeBrilliance: Steve is the only character who seems to be able to kill people off for real, whether directly or because of his actions. The only exception is Womp in ''Beat The House,'' because he is resurrected as a vampire. This is why [[spoiler: Panda, Mime, and Womp]]'s deaths affect the plot.
