Line 2:

''
He was introduced in what Sparacus maintained was a [[Canon]] Series 2, which featured Rose falling for Chatham, the Doctor killing a hamster, Mickey joining a cult and Jackie Tyler dying from a brain tumor contracted from a genetically-modified apple. (But that's okay, because Sparacus maintains that she was too low-class to appear on Doctor Who anyway.)
Line 41:
* [[Author Appeal]]: Sparacus seems to fancy Adam Rickett...
** <s>LBC</s> Mutie has a similar thing for Hannah Murray.
* [[Author On Board]]: Ben's views seem to dovetail remarkably well with Sparacus' own opinions on a wide variety of subjects. Particularly the working class -- or rather, anyone who may have an accent commonly associated with and vaguely appear to be working class.▼
* [[Beige Prose]]: All events except for those which feature Ben topless are described with astonishing economy, to the point where alien invasions are introduced and solved in the space of a sentence.
* [[British Accents]]: Kyle's accent seems to vary wildly between mancunian, scouser, cockney...basically anywhere that sounds vaguely working class.
Line 69 ⟶ 68:
* [[How Do I Used Tense]] - Almost all of the stories are written in a present tense voice not in about 99.8% of any other written medium outside of scripts.
* [[Identical Grandson]] - both Friar Tuck in The Lord of Reedy River and Barry Tuck are apparently played by ... sigh... Johnny Vegas.
* [[Licensed Sexist]] - probably most of the cast due to [[
* [[Loads and Loads of Characters]] - there are a surprisingly large number of recurring original characters for a fan series. Kyle, Craig, Isobel, Katie, Paul Farraday, Corrine Shaw, Barry Tuck, Shakey Jake, Anselm Ashford-Ashworth, Carl and Abby Simpson and probably some more. None of them do much, though...
* [[Long-Lost Relative]] - {{spoiler|in ''Chateau of Death'', Ben finds out he has a half-brother he never knew about, the product of his father's affair with a French actress.}}
Line 97 ⟶ 96:
** ...wait a minute, that's a line from ''[[The Beach Boys|Smile]]''!
* [[Working Class People Are Morons]] - Ben (and, not incidentally, Sparacus himself) is very fond of sneering at 'chavs', even if the characters being sneered at don't actually fall into that particular group. A lot of them (unintentionally?) turn out to be a lot more useful and intelligent than he is.
