Dirty Bertie is a series of children's books by David Roberts.The books focus on a seven-year-old boy who lives in London with his parents, his older sister Suzy, and his dog Whiffer.The boy's name is Bertie and he likes to do gross-out things like play with worms, pick his nose, and stuff like that, which disgusts other people.His rivals include a snooty boy named Nicholas, also known as Know-All Nick, his teacher Miss Boot, a nosy girl next door who pretends to be his girlfriend named Angela Nicely, and a wealthy boy named Royston Rich.His friends are three of his classmates: Darren, Eugene, and Donna, the former two of whom are his best friends.The first story was simply called "Dirty Bertie", whereas the others usually have one-word titles that end in an exclamation mark. | |

If I Wanted X, I Would Y | |
| Dirty Bertie / int_131650cb | comment |
If I Wanted X, I Would Y: When Bertie goes to a dimly-lit restaurant he dislikes, he thinks that if he'd wanted to sit in the dark, he would have gone to the cinema. | |

Playing Sick | |
| Dirty Bertie / int_1320d787 | comment |
Playing Sick: In "Pants!", Bertie claims to have "Germy Measles". When his mother says she cannot see any spots, he says they are invisible. In "Beg!", Bertie paints red blotches on his face while dressing as a Victorian beggar, because apparently "beggars are always getting diseases and plagues". Later, when he's mistaken for a real beggar, he tells a woman that he has the plague. In "Worms!", one of the excuses Bertie thinks for not going to Angela's party is that he has "party-itis", which brings him out in spots, but he eventually scraps that idea. | |

Comedic Work, Serious Scene | |
| Dirty Bertie / int_1849f58e | comment |
Comedic Work, Serious Scene: For the most part, "Toothy" is a funny story about Bertie thinking Mr. Filling is a Depraved Dentist because he overheard him mention putting someone who's both male and seven years old (like Bertie) "to sleep". However, the conflict is solved by a reveal that he was actually talking about Rex, his sick dog. | |

Neat Freak | |
| Dirty Bertie / int_1ea248b4 | comment |
Neat Freak: Bertie's older sister Suzy likes to be clean, which puts tension between her and Bertie. Both Mr Grouch the janitor and Bertie's father seem to hate leaves and/or grass on the ground. Mr Grouch seems to hate messes more, possibly because he is a janitor. One woman at the vets seemed like a bit of a neat freak, as she called Whiffer a "filthy fleabag" upon hearing that he had fleas. Nick also has neat-freak tendencies, including wanting his superhero name to be "Tidyman". | |

Baby's First Words: In "Bum!", Bertie and his parents are visiting his mother's friends Simon and Jenny and their 14-month-old daughter Molly. When Bertie shouts, "Bum!" as an exclamation, it becomes Molly's first word and Bertie tries to hide it from Simon and Jenny. | |

Blatant Lies | |
| Dirty Bertie / int_40bb59d0 | comment |
Blatant Lies: When Bertie doesn't want to go to school in "Pants!", he claims to have "germy measles", and when his mum says she can't see spots, he claims they're invisible. Two of Bertie's excuses for not going to Angela's party are that a crocodile bit his head off and that he has a rare Polka-Dot Disease called "party-itis". When Bertie hears Great-Aunt Morag is visiting, he suggests his mother say they're sick, but she says no. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
| Dirty Bertie / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: The series often plays this for laughs: At the end of "Burp!", the school is back to the cook Bertie preferred, but he's lost his appetite and the other students still don't like the menu. In one story, Bertie and his grandmother sign up to a dance contest to win a trip to New York. They lose, but don't mind, since their obnoxious rivals also lost. At the end of "Hamster!", Bertie finds the eponymous hamster, Snuffles, but then Snuffles poops on him. "Walkies" ends with Bertie being told off, but Whiffer passing his training test. At the end of "Crackers!", the Christmas play goes wrong, but the boys and Whiffer happily go caroling. "Slave" ends with Royston refusing to pay Bertie for making him his slave, yet Bertie doesn't mind and gets to tease Royston. At the end of "Fetch!", Tiny the robot dog is destroyed and lost at the bottom of the pond. Bertie, however, doesn't mind and Whiffer gets to be the centre of attention again. In "Wedding", Bertie ends up saving the wedding ring, but the cake is still missing some letters because Bertie ate them off. "Robot Wars" ends with Bertie winning a trophy, but Miss Boot angry that he based his robot off her. At the end of "Burger", the family is angry with Bertie, but he gets to eat at the restaurant he likes. | |

I Need to Go Iron My Dog | |
| Dirty Bertie / int_8ca89acb | comment |
I Need to Go Iron My Dog: In "Worms", Bertie thinks of many excuses to get out of going to a party he doesn't want to (it's for a girl he finds annoying, he's the only boy invited, and it's pink-themed and he hates pink). While some of the excuses are plausible (e.g. that he has gas and they wouldn't want him around), most fall into this trope. For instance, he claims he has a disease called "party-itis" and then later pretends to have amnesia. | |

Sweet Tooth | |
| Dirty Bertie / int_bac9f95d | comment |
Sweet Tooth: Bertie loves candy and would do anything for some candy. Nick has shown to like candy as well. Exaggerated for Angela, who thinks she's in love with Bertie, just because he gave her some candy. | |

Anxiety Dreams: When Bertie loses a bet with Nick and has to go to school in his undies, he has a "Not Wearing Pants" Dream out of fear. When Bertie has to go to the dentist, he has a nightmare where the dentist has fangs. In "Mud!", Bertie has a nightmare about playing soccer/football against a team of Miss Boots when he's afraid to play it. | |

Faint in Shock: Never really happens, but Bertie supposes his mother would have fainted if he'd weed on a tree like Whiffer. A third time, he says Miss Boot "looks like she might pass out", and a third time, he says his dad "looked like he might faint". | |

Big "NO!": Bertie shouts, "NOOO!" upon learning he has to have a haircut, and so does Miss Boot when the penny pyramid crashes. Additionally, Bertie also said, "NO!" with one "o" but still in caps upon hearing that Great-Aunt Morag is visiting. | |

Shout-Out: "Fangs" has Darren dress as Dennis The Menace, Eugene as Willy Wonka and Bertie and Mr Grouch as Count Dracula. In "Brainiac!", one of the questions for the big quiz is "Who wrote The BFG?" "Outlaw!" is about Bertie emulating Robin Hood. In "Monster!", when Bertie, Darren, and Eugene paint Nick's face to look like a monster, Bertie says that he "makes Dracula look handsome" and "looks like Frankenstein's monster." In "Rocky!", Bertie mentions "swinging like Tarzan" at the theme park. | |

Comedic Underwear Exposure: The whole setup with the story "Pants!" is that Bertie loses a bet to Nick and has to go to school in his underwear. Eventually, he ends up using the loophole that he is wearing underwear under his trousers and tricks Nick into pulling his trousers down after saying that Nick doesn’t wear any, and so he tries to prove it, resulting in a photo of him in his underwear being taken by Angela Nicely. | |

Embarrassment Plot: In one story, Bertie tries to get out of going to the hairdresser because he has to have his hair cut by a guy named Sweeney Bob who only does buzz-cuts, which Bertie finds embarrassing. In "Pants!", Bertie is embarrassed and tries to get out of a bet he lost with Know-All Nick which means he has to go to school in his underwear the next day. "Fame!" is all about Bertie having an Embarrassing Ad Gig when he learns he will star in an ad for bubble bath and they're going to film him in the bath. | |
