** There always seemed to be ''something'' between Tony and Gary, for all they talked about girls. WordOfGod [[http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2002/oct/21/broadcasting.tvandradio confirms it]] saying "Men Behaving Badly was about a same-sex relationship. Everyone latched on to the lad thing, but to me there was always a significant homoerotic content in the relationship between Gary and Tony. You always got the impression that they'd rather be left alone together, but that was something that they could never admit to themselves."
** When Gary is soon to be married (later called off):
--->'''Tony:''' Gary... if ''I'' was a girl... with a girl's bottom and everything... would you marry me?\\
'''Gary:''' ''[stares at him for a moment in an awkward silence, then answers instantly]'' Course mate!\\
'''Tony:''' Cheers mate!

** Post Me Too, it is debatable whether a character like Tony would get a starring role in a mainstream comedy today. There are ''so many'' times that Deborah clearly says no only for him to continue pursuing her. And that is to say nothing about behaviour such as bugging her flat which today is nothing less than stalking.
