Webcomic

  • This happens after Nick comes out to his mother.
    Mrs Nelson: This doesn’t mean he (Charlie) can come to Majorca with us just because he’s your boyfriend.
    Nick: But muuuuuum!
  • In the Adoption mini-comic set after a ten-year timeskip, a miscommunication leads Tori to believe Nick and Charlie are adopting a child. This causes her to freak out despite Michael's reassurances. When it turns out the couple were just adopting a dog, you can almost hear the annoyance in her voice.
  • Nick, Elle and Tara driving to where Charlie and his band are playing after being stuck in a traffic jam.
    Nick: I'm going at the speed limit!!
    Elle: DRIVE!!!
    Tara: Everyone stop shouting!
  • The Q&As are an absolute goldmine.
    • In response to several users asking if Mr Farouk and Mr Ajayi had gotten married:
    Mr Ajayi: *chokes on coffee*
    Mr Farouk: MARRIAGE?

Netflix adaptation

Warning: Unmarked spoilers.

  • Tori repeatedly sneaking up on Charlie.
  • Charlie admitting that okay, Nick does look like a golden retriever.
  • Poor Nick trying to explain the situation with Imogen to his mum...and failing miserably. Olivia Coleman's utterly baffled reaction sells it perfectly.
    Mrs Nelson: Do you like this girl?
    Nick: Well, um, her dog died.
    Mrs Nelson: [long pause] ...Uh, not following.
  • Elle teasing Tao over his complaining about Charlie and Nick.
    Tao: Next, Charlie will be bringing the whole rugby team to our film night and making us watch Avengers or something.
    Elle: Is that your nightmare scenario? Watching a movie you hate with people you don't like very much?
  • The Running Gag of no one knowing the rules of rugby.
  • Near the beginning of the show Nick asks Charlie to join the rugby team, to some success. Then in the last episode he asks Tao to join as well, to Tao's visible exasperation.
  • Imogen, after rather rudely interrogating Tara about whether she's interested in Nick (prompting Tara to eventually snap at her "I'm a lesbian!" out of sheer irritation), then hurriedly tries to assure Tara and Darcy that she's not prejudiced.
    Imogen: I'm not like homophobic. (smiles beatifically) I'm an ally.
    Tara: ...Congratulations?
    Darcy: (glaring) We thank you for your service.
  • Nick coming out to Imogen. She's already guessed that he and Charlie are together, and is feeling a lot better about Nick rejecting her some months earlier:
    Imogen: You didn't like me because you're gay!
    Nick: Er... well, I'm bisexual, actually.
    Imogen: (looking like she's dying inside) ...Oh!
