  • Funny Moments:
    • Forecast Service ends with it's own version of the iconic final shot from "Weather Service", but in this case it's a clip of a partially cloudy blue sky inter-cut with the same sounds of people screaming.
    • WINSTONOBSERVER uses a clip from 2012 UK Olympics featuring a CGI animated version of the statue of Winston Churchill waving at a passing helicopter.
    • In The United Kingdom's Otherworldly Creatures "You will hear screaming. They took their voices." is instead, "You will hear swearing. They got into a fight."
      "Burn the Chavs, lest they fight again."
    • The final game in Games For Brits is "Storm the Twickenham Stadium." The object of which involves breaking into Twickenham Stadium in the dead of night and shouting "God save the Queen" at the top of your lungs until the police arrive to arrest you for disturbing the peace.
    • British Broadcasting in a parody of "Real Sleep" features a broadcast that is hijacked by Americans to reprogram the Brits. One such way involves rapidly flashing phrases such as "Use spices when cooking", "Stop colonizing any rock", "Beans are not food by themselves", "You spell it color, not colour", "Lager tastes like piss", "Its called soccer, not football", and "The sun exists".
  • Spiritual Successor: The idea of an alien force turning the British population into that of a neighboring ethnicity was previously explored by Monty Python in the episode ''You're No Fun Anymore'' where British people were turned into Scotsmen so that the aliens could win Wimbledon.
