* TheUnpronounceable: Lucreechietta, to the point that the announcement of her name makes the cast laugh [[ThisIsGonnaSuck as they realise what they’re in for]]. Everyone, but especially [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} Arthur]], not being able to pronounce her name becomes a RunningGag.
* TomTheDarkLord: King Tim’s name is one of the first things that mark him out as a false king and not a particularly threatening villain.

* Psychopathic Manchild: Tim has a fair few instances of this, most obviously in his rage at being betrayed by Samantha.

!!Tropes in this episode:episode:


* ArthurianLegend: The setting.
* BadBadActing: Invoked with the over-the-top IncurableCoughofDeath which makes it clear Dolores will not survive the show.
* BestialityIsDepraved: King Tim and his peculiar pride in sheep. Notable since this trope is usually defied in MMNI, with human/animal relationships being considered more or less fine.
* ComicallyMissingthePoint: There is a long section building up Lucreechietta to be queen, as the most capable person there, the direct heir of the rightful king, and the only person able to [[OnlyTheChosenMayWield awaken the Royal Mace]], after which Tim takes off his crown, approaches her, and attempts to crown the unborn child. [[AntiClimax It unceremoniously falls to the floor]].
* EvilIsPetty: [[TheCaligula King Tim]], whose stated goal for stealing Arthur's sheep is to “have the fluffiest and wooliest jumper in the land!”.
* Excalibur: The King’s Mace is a clear expy.
* FreudianExcuse: Tim’s reign of terror is apparently him seeking warmth and affection that Arthur got from their father, [[TheUnFavourite but he never did]].
* InstantBirth: Just Add Labour!: Arthur tries to invoke this trope as a race to see which of the heirs will be born first and, as such, crowned. RealityEnsues.
* LaughablyEvil: King Tim is completely ridiculous.
* Leitmotif: Español has his own theme tune ([[LeaningOnTheFourthWall which it seems the other characters can hear]]).
* NonSpecificallyForeign: Dave’s Ambiguously European accent for Español, whom Oscar refers to as [[LampshadeHanging Español the Frenchman]].
*NotSoAboveItAll: Oscar is never able to pronounce Lucreechietta’s name either, which is especially noteworthy since he spent the entire first run berating [[ButtMonkey Harry Kershaw]] for not remembering names.
* OverlyLongGag: Hen and Niall take joy in dragging out the slow motion scene, especially when Oscar demands that it end.
* ParodyProductPlacement: The stairlift advert. [[AnachronismStew In mediaeval England]].
* Psychopathic Manchild: Tim has a fair few instances of this, most obviously in his rage at being betrayed by Samantha.
--> '''King Tim:''' You’re carrying my heir; we sang the [[PregnancyDoesNotWorkThatWay making a baby song]] together!
* RepeatingSoTheAudienceCanHear: Arthur asking Lucreechietta to repeat the message in their secret encoded letters (due to the [[{{Improv}} nature of the show]], this is also likely Hen asking to be caught up with the plot).
