Full English is an Animated Sitcom that first aired on Channel 4, having been created by Jack Williams, Harry Williams and Alex Scarfe for the network.The show follows the daily life of Edgar Johnson and his family, consisting of the overweight Emo Teen Eve, ditzy middle-child Jason, Manchild Dusty, and his somewhat put-upon wife Wendy. Edgar works for Wendy's father-in-law, the egotistical and borderline evil Ken Lavender. Ken himself has an Imaginary Friend, the green and very circular Squidge, who is quite immoral and adult for his origins.Much like Family Guy, the show takes jab at a variety of topics, albeit aimed at a British audience, and is not afraid to get into offensive issues, to the point that one episode was banned out of fears that it would offend the Roma community. The episode was eventually released on DVD, and the show would run for only 6 episodes. | |

| Full English / int_1235f055 | comment |
Dirty Coward: The plot of "Mangina" starts when Edgar runs away from the house in fear of a shadowy figure holding a knife in the kitchen, leaving his family alone to deal with the figure (who turns out to be a drunk Ken). He is called out for this by his family. | |

| Full English / int_2d75bf32 | comment |
Creepy High-Pitched Voice: Squidge's high-pitched nasally voice contrasts heavily with his immoral nature and desire to egg Ken on to unpleasant things. | |

Fat Comic Relief | |
| Full English / int_2ef89a18 | comment |
Fat Comic Relief: Eve is the fattest in her family, and is the subject of gags about her weight, such as being exploited by Britain's Got Talent and breaking her bed with her weight. After Eve overeats on chocolate in "Dusty and the Real Girl", she is taken to a group of other fat people. The group in question is depicted as a group of food-obsessed comic relief, with one of them assuming that he no longer had legs until told otherwise that they were simply hidden by his fat. | |

Animated Shock Comedy | |
| Full English / int_38faf433 | comment |
Animated Shock Comedy: The first joke of the series, that of the cast of Skins doing drugs and planning to take part in a gang-bang, sets the tone for this adult animated series, which derives jokes from topics as diverse as disability, weight, sex, and violence. | |

Big Eater | |
| Full English / int_5fcedca | comment |
Big Eater: Part of the reason for Eve's weight seems to come from her interest in food, culminating in her running into a barrel of chocolate and beginning to consume it in "Dusty and the Real Girl". It's so problematic that going two and a half hours without food causes her to faint on the spot. | |

| Full English / int_7ad0e492 | comment |
Imaginary Friend: Squidge is the imaginary friend of Ken. "Bank to the Future" shows that Ken imagined him up in response to a man asking him to "touch his little starfish", unaware that he actually wanted to show him a starfish and not his dick. | |

Inspirationally Disadvantaged | |
| Full English / int_9dd2af4a | comment |
Inspirationally Disadvantaged: Eve's major competitor Britain's Got Talent is a legless girl playing a violin in a wheelchair with Asthma. It is made clear that the girl doesn't have any musical talent, but she makes it as far as the final round anyway because of her disabled status being viewed as inspirational enough to exploit. | |

Toxic Friend Influence: Squidge manages to be an Imaginary Friend variant - "Bank to the Future" shows that his first act upon coming into existence was influencing Ken to kill a person and he regularly makes Ken do stuff like ditching driving Moses to the pet in favour of getting drunk at the pub. | |

Alien Invasion: The beginning of "Dusty and the Real Girl" features a race of tiny aliens plotting to conquer the world. This lasts until they come across the Johnson's pet dog, upon which they retreat. At the end of the episode, the aliens try again, but the commander can't bring himself to kill Dusty and his sexdoll. Cue their death by foot, Monty Python-style. | |
