Fisherman’s Friends provides examples of the following tropes:

  • Based on a True Story: A British Comedy-Drama based on the true story of the "Fisherman's Friends" was released in 2019 and was followed by a 2022 sequel 'Fisherman's Friends: One and All'' (Both were also filmed in the home village of the Fisherman's Friends "Port Isaac" in Cornwall).
  • Last of His Kind: "The Last Leviathan" tells the story of The Last Whale.
    Last night I heard the cry. of my last companion.
    Then came a blast from a harpoon gun,
    and I swam alone.
  • Pirate Song: They sing sea shanties, so yes.
