Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps (commonly shortened to Two Pints or Two Pints of Lager) is a BBC sitcom written by Susan Nickson. It is set in the town of Runcorn in Cheshire, England, and revolves around the lives, loves and assorted issues of five friends, consisting of the motherly, caring, yet slobbish Janet Keogh (Sheridan Smith), slacker but sensitive and all-round nice guy Jonny Keogh (Ralf Little), who is Janet's long-term boyfriend and later husband, the laddish Gaz Wilkinson (Will Mellor), whose brain power definitely isn't his strong point, the ambitious and hot-tempered Donna Wilkinson (Natalie Casey), who is Gaz's long-term girlfriend and later wife, and the narcissistic, insensitive and often rather bizarre Louise Brooks (Kathryn Drysdale). In later seasons, Timothy "Tim" Claypole (Luke Gell), the Archer's bitchy and camp new barman, and Donna's new boyfriend, the overly Cockney, initially unpleasant but later rather friendly Wesley Presley (Thomas Nelstrop), were added to the cast roster. The show was first broadcast in 2001, and ran for nine series over a decade, making it one of BBC Three's most popular shows.While the first two seasons of the show consisted of a mere six episodes each, the later seasons were much longer. There have also been four "special" episodes - a musical special, which was standalone, a horror special, which, while non-canon, was added on to the end of the sixth series, a live special, which was the seventh season opener, a Comic Relief special, and two specials that aired in 2009, consisting of another musical, and a Sliding Doors parody.Although Two Pints is a comedy series, it has shown itself to be more dramatic and serious, usually towards the end of a season. The final episodes of each season tend to end on a bittersweet, and sometimes quite a sad note.The show is mainly known for its adult, sometimes scatological humor, mostly involving references to sex and private bodily functions. The humor has also become rather surreal at times, most notably in the "special" episodes. The series is also known for rather naughty language. However, the word "fuck" is uttered only once in each series, and always in the final episode.The show's ninth season aired in 2011, with two new characters, after Sheridan Smith (Janet) and Kathryn Drysdale (Louise) stated they would not be returning to their roles. This prompted... mixed reactions, to say the least. Despite the ninth series ending with the intention of the show continuing, the show was cancelled a short while after it finished.Came sixtieth in Britains Best Sitcom.

Right Behind Me: Used in one episode, in which a rather insecure Gaz is ranting to Janet about Donna's decision to start college (he feels as though she's abandoned him), then, without missing a single beat, ends it with "...and she's in the kitchen, isn't she?". The next few moments make it quite clear that Donna did indeed hear every word.

comment
When Janet gives birth to Corinthian. She compares the sensation of labour to "someone opening an umbrella in (her) arse". This trope is initially subverted during the beginning of her labour, though. When her water first breaks, she is generally very calm and not in pain, which freaks Jonny out somewhat. When the pains suddenly start, Jonny is pleased that Janet is now "sticking to the rules".

Jonny's absolutely horrible superior from one of his short-lived jobs. She mercilessly bullies him, rants over and over about how many children she has, and makes nasty, judgemental comments about Janet, who she's never even met. She's so horrible Jonny ends up breaking his personal code of Wouldn't Hit a Girl.

The Ghost: Louise's mentally unstable adoptive mother, and her late "Auntie Nigel" are mentioned frequently, but are never seen. The same goes for Donna's father (although she is seen having a phone conversation with him in one episode, but his voice is never heard), and Janet's mother. There's also "Bald Shirley", the babysitter Gaz arranged for Corinthian in "Candle".

Aborted Arc
 Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps / int_23698fa8
comment
Aborted Arc: At the end of season 5, it was suggested that Donna's younger brother Dion was going to move in with her and Gaz. This never happened, with Dion only getting a vague mention in the next season. Late into season 6, Louise ended up in massive debt, due to spending money on a car when she believed her mother was going to die and leave her a big inheritance. This is completely forgotten about by the finale. In "Ello Ello", Wesley accidentally reveals to Louise that he fathered a child before he met Donna, and panickedly begs Louise not to tell her. Despite the implications that Donna might later find out, this was never brought up again. In the season 7 finale, It was suggested that Gaz and Donna would take in Corinthian. By the next season, Janet had taken Corinthian and moved to Milton Keynes.

Bitch in Sheep's Clothing
 Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps / int_2764d432
comment
Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Louise shows signs of this, although all of her friends know very well just how bitchy she can be. Then there's Jonny's temporary girlfriend Kate. At first, she comes across as nice if a little dim and very cheerful, but later she is frequently shown giving Janet backhanded compliments and thinly veiled insults (while still in her cheerful demeanor) and at one point gives Janet a gift... which happens to be Janet's own ironing board, that Kate and Jonny broke while having sex on it, and seems to enjoy rubbing her relationship with Jonny in Janet's face. YMMV on whether Kate is being genuinely nasty or is just too ditzy to realise that she's being hurtful. The very last episode with Kate, however, shows that she definitely has a nasty side, outright insulting all of Jonny's friends in front of them and demanding that Jonny make a choice — her or his friends. He chooses the latter.

Cassie insists she would never have forced him out of the closet like that and insists that she only knew about the breakup.

Teens Are Monsters
 Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps / int_38d12399
comment
Teens Are Monsters: Donna's younger brother, Dion, is a particularly nasty example of this trope. He's aggressive, spiteful, foul-mouthed, and has no problem with destroying other peoples' possessions just to be a dick (eg. Gaz's prized mechanic trophy), and threatens to call the police on Gaz when the latter quite rightfully reacts with anger during this incident. There's also the fact that he got Louise pregnant and wanted absolutely nothing to do with the baby. (Oh, and he tries too hard to be black.)

Keeping Secrets Sucks
 Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps / int_4215e3e
comment
Keeping Secrets Sucks: Louise is usually saddled with keeping sordid secrets from the rest of the group — such as Janet sleeping with Gaz, and the fact that Gaz is Corinthian's father. She's generally very bad at it. She comes close to spilling the beans on the first secret (until Jonny eventually finds out for himself), but she's downright useless at keeping the second one.

Dropped a Bridge on Him

Dropped a Bridge on Him: Jonny is killed off-screen after he is eaten by a shark in Hawaii. Apparently. A new clip in 2021 reveals Jonny is still alive., as Ralf Little wanted to leave the show to pursue a career in movies and other TV shows. Flo, Donna's mother, also suffered a similar fate when she is hit by a truck off-screen, as Beverley Callard wished to leave the show to return to her role on Coronation Street.

Screaming Birth
 Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps / int_47060811
comment
Screaming Birth: When Janet gives birth to Corinthian. She compares the sensation of labour to "someone opening an umbrella in (her) arse". This trope is initially subverted during the beginning of her labour, though. When her water first breaks, she is generally very calm and not in pain, which freaks Jonny out somewhat. When the pains suddenly start, Jonny is pleased that Janet is now "sticking to the rules". Subverted when Louise gives birth to Little Louise - the most noise she makes consists of grunting and groaning. Somewhat surprising, given her habit of squealing.

Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?
 Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps / int_5beef860
comment
Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: Gaz is terrified of sheep (at least, until he takes steps to cure it in the seventh season - which doesn't seem to have worked all that well by the time the eighth season rolls around). In later episodes, he is forced to deal with them, most notably in the last two episodes of the fifth season, in which he forces himself to face his fear so that he and Donna can move into their dream house in the countryside. Naturally, it doesn't go according to plan and they end up staying in Runcorn anyway. The eighth season episode 'D.I.V.O.R.C.E.' reveals the origin of his fear - Donna and Gaz are shown meeting for the first time, as five-year-olds, and Donna is holding a toy sheep that she has named Satan. She tells Gaz that he is a "devil sheep" who "comes in the night and eats your eyes". Cue the sheep phobia.

One Drink Will Kill the Baby: Jonny is outraged at Janet still trying to drink during pregnancy — she even cracks open a beer when she starts to go into labour (which, naturally, outrages him even more). Donna later makes an insulting comment about Corinthian, claiming that "(he) looks like (Janet) drank heavily during pregnancy".

comment
Straw Feminist: Donna in later seasons. She believes her lack of career advancement is due to the "patriarchal misogynistic bastards" rather than any of her actions (such as asking for a deceased colleague's job during a moment of silence in his memory). She even uses this excuse when she loses the position of new manager of The Archer to Janet. After she gets fired from the bucket factory, both her former position and the one she was angling for are given to women, something she dismisses as "tokenism". "Keep On Running" confirms that Donna actually knows very little about what it means to be a feminist.

Irritation Is the Sincerest Form of Flattery: Kelly does this in one episode, when she decides to start dressing and acting exactly like Donna in an attempt to make Gaz interested in her.

Remember the New Guy?
 Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps / int_77b03c0a
comment
Remember the New Guy?: Dion, Donna's unpleasant younger brother. He only appears in the sixth season finale. (Although an early season episode showed a young boy sitting at the dinner table in Donna's mother's house — it is never explained who he is, so it is quite possible that this is a younger Dion.)

Curse Cut Short: Visual example. In Borry, Donna scratches the letters 'CUN' onto Gaz's car as revenge for him having an affair. Gaz arrives before she can finish the word, and asks what a 'cun' is.

Mistaken for Pregnant: Janet, at the end of the first season, and Donna, at the beginning of the second season (the latter episode is set immediately after the former). In a mild subversion, both girls also mistakenly believe themselves to be pregnant, until Janet takes a pregnancy test and Donna gets her period. Both Jonny and Gaz freak out accordingly.

Sex Equals Love - Donna and Gaz's relationship starts out based purely on sex (she even admits in one episode that she only started dating him because she liked the way he looked), but, as their relationship develops, they later realise that they love each other. Also, in a plotline that is considered by many to be fairly bad, Gaz and Janet suddenly fall in love, years after they had a one-night stand.

Wham Episode: The episode 'Filthy Brunching', in which Jonny is shot by the police at the episode's climax, the episode 'Dead', which begins with Flo's funeral, the live episode 'When Jonny Met Sharky', in which Jonny is killed off-screen by a shark. Apparently. Until a new clip in 2021 reveals he's still alive., and the eighth season finale, 'Keep On Running', in which Gaz is involved in a freaking car explosion.

But I Can't Be Pregnant!: Well, sort of. Corinthian is initially believed to be Jonny's child, after Gaz discovers that he has a low sperm count. However, Jonny was obviously still unsure, and arranged a DNA test without telling anybody. It is later discovered that Gaz is actually the father, although he decides not to tell Janet, as she sees Corinthian as the only thing she has left of Jonny after he dies.

Lousy Lovers Are Losers: Invoked in "Who's The Daddy?". While Gaz and Donna are broken up, Gaz likes to brag about being a Chick Magnet that's constantly picking women to make her jealous, while the truth is he's actually been alone and sulking ever since they broke up. But he succeeds at making Donna jealous, and to get back at him she implies he was terrible in bed while they were together which greatly upsets him and destroys his self-esteem, to the point he gets run over by a car while sulking about it. It's only at the hospital that they make up and she confesses she also lied about him being bad at sex.

Mood Whiplash
 Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps / int_a4c37cbe
comment
Mood Whiplash: The horror episode is the very definition of this trope — although several moments in it are clearly played for laughs, the episode as a whole is a lot darker and is considered to be quite shocking and disturbing in places, especially to those who are used to the show's usual formula. Not only is the humour far darker, but there is a surprising amount of gore and features all of the lead characters getting killed off in assorted gruesome ways. The show's more dramatic and tearjerking moments also count, most notably the end of the seventh season opener, in which it is revealed that Jonny has died. Although the very end of the episode throws in some humour to lighten the mood a little, it is still an unexpectedly shocking and heartbreaking moment. Also, the very end of the eighth season finale, Keep On Running. Again, the last few minutes do have some moments of humour thrown in, but overall it is a quiet, romantic, and heartwarming moment, combined with a good healthy dosage of Wham Episode. In the very same episode (and a few minutes before the "Wham" moment), the once a season Precision F-Strike isn't played for laughs, as is usually the case, but is used in a much more serious context.

comment
The Loins Sleep Tonight: Gaz becomes impotent in a few episodes, leaving him very disheartened, until he manages to get it up again after Donna's smug, slimy tutor Phillip makes him fly into a rage. When he experiences the same problem a few episodes later, Donna tries to make him angry again by wearing a mask of Phillip, and by getting him to leave a message on the answering machine so that Gaz can listen to it. It doesn't work.

Trademark Favorite Food: Jonny loves biscuits. A lot. So much, in fact, that he gives his son, Corinthian, the middle name of McVitie, his dream job is working in a biscuit factory, and, in one episode, Janet rubs Jammy Dodgers (Jonny's absolute absolute favourite) over her cleavage to try and seduce him. In an ironic twist (and played for laughs), the horror episode features a giant killer Jammy Dodger that eats Jonny's head, and turns him into a Dodger-headed zombie. What a way to go!

Negative Continuity

comment
Negative Continuity: The first episode shows Donna practically begging Janet to set her up on a date with Gaz, after they briefly met at a football match. Conversely, "When Janet Met Jonny" depicts them meeting for the first time at a nightclub, with Donna being utterly repulsed by him. There are also three different versions of how Jonny and Janet got together. In the first series, Gaz states that Jonny left his previous girlfriend for Janet. In series 2, it's Janet who left her boyfriend, Andy, for Jonny. In the musical special, they are both single and meet in a nightclub.

Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: Kelly completely disappears after the end of the sixth season with no explanation as to where she's gone (although, according to some fans who were in the studio audience when some episodes were being filmed, her disappearance was explained, but the scene was deleted from the finished episode). Munch also disappeared completely during season 5 with no explanation, only to return for season 7. However, he did not appear in season 8, and, again, no explanation has been given as to his disappearance. Louise's birth parents. Her birth mother and her husband appear in one episode, and, in the following episode, her father, Brian, turns up. They disappear after their respective episodes and are never seen from (and rarely mentioned) again. Kate is also never seen or heard from after Jonny breaks up with her, although she is mentioned a few times. Wesley disappears after the season 8 finale.

Bestiality Is Depraved: In one episode set when Gaz and Donna have broken up and Kelly is trying to win Gaz for herself, Donna, to get revenge against Gaz, informs Kelly of the one thing that will drive Gaz wild in the bedroom... a sheep. She is, of course, lying, and Gaz's reaction to the nasty surprise at the end of the episode is not one of joy, to say the least.

Shout-Out

comment
Shout-Out: When Gaz tries to explain away his Porn Stash by claiming he's "just holding it for a friend", Donna mockingly asks if that friend is Hugh Hefner. Tim's full name, Timothy Claypole, is a reference to Rentaghost. Wesley apparently has a fear of Cybermen. When Gaz asks why anyone would want to jump a shark, Janet replies Fonz-style. The horror special contains a reference to the Stanley Kubrick film version of The Shining, when Jonny creeps up behind Janet and says the famous "Heeeeeerrrreeee's Johnny!" line. Jonny's "favourite lullaby" as a child was the theme tune to ThunderCats. He is also fond of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Dogtanian and the Three Muskehounds, and The Tweenies (he really likes the theme tune). Jonny names his car Herbie. Janet being dragged through the pub door towards the end of "When Janet Killed Jonny" bears a striking visual resemblance to a scene in A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984).

Then there's Jonny's temporary girlfriend Kate. At first, she comes across as nice if a little dim and very cheerful, but later she is frequently shown giving Janet backhanded compliments and thinly veiled insults (while still in her cheerful demeanor) and at one point gives Janet a gift... which happens to be Janet's own ironing board, that Kate and Jonny broke while having sex on it, and seems to enjoy rubbing her relationship with Jonny in Janet's face. YMMV on whether Kate is being genuinely nasty or is just too ditzy to realise that she's being hurtful. The very last episode with Kate, however, shows that she definitely has a nasty side, outright insulting all of Jonny's friends in front of them and demanding that Jonny make a choice — her or his friends. He chooses the latter.

Innocuously Important Episode: The events of "Cuggles" (where Janet and Gaz have a one night stand) have far-reaching consequences, such as the question of who the father of Johnny and Janet's baby really is.

Clothing Damage: Happens to Donna in season 9 when the flat is set on fire. All of her clothes are burnt, leaving her just with what she has on. She decides to become a nudist, but later dons a sheet when she is nearly arrested in a supermarket for public exposure, and a dog gets "overfamiliar" with her.

Lamaze Class: Played with - both Gaz and Jonny attend a class similar to this, with a toy monkey and a baby doll (in really bad condition) respectively. While Gaz surprisingly does a good job of it, Jonny completely screws it up.

comment
Obvious Pregnancy: Louise gets a huge bump pretty quickly, although the episode in which her bump becomes prominent is set several months after the previous episode. Being a complete Cloudcuckoo Lander, she doesn't think that her bump is that obvious. Everyone else begs to differ.

Clingy Jealous Girl / Yandere: Louise shows a few signs of this on the occasions where she's in a relationship: especially during her time with David. Cassie is this around Billy. When she saw him hugging Donna, she tried to attack Donna with a bar stool in a rage.

comment
Crossover: The Comic Relief special 'When Janet Met Michelle' features characters from Grownups and Coming Of Age. The fact that Sheridan Smith plays both Janet and Grownups' Michelle is a source of major awe and confusion for some of the other characters.

comment
Jerkass: Although all of the characters have their moments, Louise fits this trope most often. Also, when he's introduced, Wesley starts off as one - he takes utter delight in deriding Donna's friends, and is constantly showing off his iPhone to lord it over them that he has a lot more money than they do. However, as the series progressed, he spends a lot of time trying to improve himself, and becomes very friendly with Gaz and Janet. Phillip. Dear god, Phillip. Jonny's absolutely horrible superior from one of his short-lived jobs. She mercilessly bullies him, rants over and over about how many children she has, and makes nasty, judgemental comments about Janet, who she's never even met. She's so horrible Jonny ends up breaking his personal code of Wouldn't Hit a Girl. Dion. See Teens Are Monsters below.

Delivery Guy: When Louise gives birth in the seventh series, Munch is there to assist her in his own... unique way. After the child is born, Louise claims that she will name the baby "Louise Munch Brooks" after him. It turns out that she was lying, and names the baby "Louise Louise Brooks" instead.

Hard-Work Montage: Used... interestingly in the episode 'Fat', featuring Gaz's... um, unique method of losing weight. It's even set to an instrumental version of Eye of the Tiger. (The entire sequence is most likely a Parody of this trope.)
