  • Jim is seen wearing a female tennis kit.

  • Owen mentions that he once had sex with his own cousin, with Jim and Frank admitting to it as well. It's implied that she got pregnant on all three occasions.

Violence & Gore

  • Owen says that he'll be slaughtering one of his cows the next day and so invites the audience to order their Christmas beef after the show.

He suggests juggling kittens instead, saying that he knows from experience that they don't mind being dropped.
