History Series / TimeGentlemenPlease

* {{Story Arc}}: Quite a few. The first was a two-parter in the the seventh and eighth episodes "Get Diggy With It"/"The Pub That Time Forgot" about archaeologists digging up the back of the pub. The first season's main arc has the Guv attempts to be kind to Ms Jackson for the next six months after it's supposed that she may be dying, though it turns out she's actually pregnant after sexual contact with one of the other main characters, but she can't remember who. It's suggested it's Terry, so her father forces Terry to marry her. However, it's revealed the child is Uncle Barry's, and it all ends on a happy note with Uncle Barry intending to look after his child. The second series' main arc has a looser arc starting from the end of the first season through till the series finale. The Guv can't pull a pint due to "Barman's Hand", a psychological trauma due to constant abandonment. The Guv realizes it's due to an abandonment complex and is resolved in the series finale. The second series had it's own two-parter involving Irish painters in "Got The Painters In"/"Wishing on A Bar".

* {{Tearjerker}}: Janet's abrupt leaving at the end of the first season. There are jokes, though it's mostly before the Guv finding out she's going. The Guv's cries of "Janet" make the whole thing sad and dramatic, even worse when it actually affects his ability to do his job as pint-puller.

* {{Story Arc}}: The fourteenth episode establishes a story arc nearly midway through the first season: the Guv attempts to be kind to Ms Jackson for the next six months after it's supposed by him that she may be suffering from a disease, though it's revealed a couple of episodes before the end of the season that she's actually pregnant after sexual contact with one of the other main characters, but she can't remember who. Her blurred memory last remembers Terry, so her father forces Terry to marry her. However, it's revealed the child is Uncle Barry's after she gave him a blowjob. Thankfully, it all ends on a happy note with Uncle Barry intending to look after his child.

* {{Death Seeker}}: The Old Man. He claims to have lived for so long that death would be a relief. Even his catchphrase, "When will I die?" shows how much he wishes to die. Whenever there's something that might look like it would kill him, he's happy that he'll kick the bucket, but it's usually shot down. Ironically, in a nightmare sequence near the series' run, he gets shot by machine-gun-wielding giant mice with human hands to the extent he's got holes in his coat, but he's still not dead.

* {{Oedipus Complex}}: Played with for laughs. When the Guv goes to see Ms Jackson's {{Identical Twin}}, a psychiatrist, he immediately refers to this trope, claiming that everything always ties in with having sex with the mother, and his attitude/disgust towards it makes the psychiatrist wonder about him. Eventually there's {A Dream Withing A Dream}} where Ms. Jackson's twin get on her knees before the Guv while he's sitting on a chair...and then he's met with the twin replaced by his mum. Cut to {{Big "NO!"}} while he wakes up.

'''Time Gentlemen Please''' is a British sitcom that went out on Sky in 2000 and lasted until 2002 after two series and a {{Christmas Episode}}. It starred AlMurray as Guv, a politically incorrect pub landlord (not the same as The Pub Landlord, Murray's stand-up character) who is abusive to most people he serves drinks to. It was written by [[Richard Herring]] and Al Murray.

* {{Christmas Episode}}: Pulled off in a weird way. While there are two episodes set during Christmas, only one of them is a Christmas Special. The other one is simply an ordinary episode.

* {{Malaproper}}: Several. Including Steve's insistence on pronouncing 'Skeleton' as 'Skelington' because it's "more proper" (a joke used previously by the writer Richard Herring in his double act with Stewart Lee.

* {{Irony}}: Throughout the second season, Terry usually expresses his disinterest in the new barmaid Carlie, who feels the same way with Terry. In the final episode's {{Stinger}}, much to Terry's shock, the two had a one-night stand after the pub's celebration, and Carlie now fancies him.

* [[Catchphrase]] Similarly to Richard Herring's other work, the show quickly establishes a myriad of catchphrases, which continue to be heavily used throughout the series. Examples include "A mouth's a mouth", "I was never confused", "It's been a year", "Look at his face, it's a picture", "I'm cheeky me" amongst almost countless others. The frequency they recur is pretty impressive.
