The Gambling Addict: Harry has a serious gambling problem. It destroyed his marriage and he owes Freddie Lau. Once he gets the bracelet, he stops gambling because it's not really gambling if you always win. | |

Creator Cameo: Stan Lee is seen briefly in the pilot episode signing autographs at a comic book store. He also shows up in "Trojan Horse", thinking that Harry's going to kill himself by jumping on the Tube's rails. In "Facing Your Demons", he shows up as a bar visitor in Central when he says to Harry "For the record, I liked it." | |

Power at a Price | |
| Stan Lee's Lucky Man / int_1ebbdddb | comment |
Power at a Price: The bracelet basically gives the wearer good luck by "taking" the luck from others, with the result that every time Harry does something really unlikely something bad is likely to happen to at least one of his friends or family. | |

Police Are Useless | |
| Stan Lee's Lucky Man / int_59907e4f | comment |
Police Are Useless: Played with a bit. The MPS is on top of the case, starting with the murder of Lau. But with the help of Clayton's bracelet, he's able to get a major headstart on the murder case and the others that soon follow. While the others are stumped, his luck leads him straight to major clues. Averted at the end of the first season. Once the other cops realize that Harry was right, they quickly follow the evidence and track down the bad guys as fast as Harry. Played in the third season where the MPS and the Hong Kong Police Force hunt Harry down because he murdered Isabella when a shot of it was seen in surveillance footage, which was obviously forged. | |

War for Fun and Profit | |
| Stan Lee's Lucky Man / int_5c99b642 | comment |
War for Fun and Profit: Vincent Lermentov made his fortune by buying large quantities of gold right before a major war or disaster caused the price of gold to rise. It is unclear if the bracelet caused these calamities so Lermentov could profit from them or if it simply predicted these events and caused him to buy the gold beforehand. | |

Casual High Drop: Harry is trying to escape from the bad guys but to do so he must jump off a roof of a building. The jump is guaranteed to break some bones unless you are very lucky and land just right. Fortunately for Harry, he has an ancient bracelet that makes its wearer extremely lucky. He lands on the ground with no injuries. Later, in Series 3, Harry leaps off a tall building to keep Blake from shooting him. Harry walks away the next morning, only saying that he's "tired", and has a few cuts. He's not wearing the bracelet when this occurs. | |
