The meaning behind the name The First Post is pretty simple: it’s the first pub on the crawl. It takes a couple of pubs to ease into the crawl, so not a lot happens at The First Post. This is partly because it takes a couple of pints to get the night into full swing anyway, but also because Gary’s friends aren’t nearly as thrilled about the crawl a...
After leaving The First Post, the guys go to The Old Familiar, which looks exactly the same as The First Post. Oliver claims this is a result of “Starbucking,” or chain pubs taking over from free houses. Oliver’s claim that chain pubs are removing Britain’s pubs of all individuality foreshadows the revelation that “The Network” is doing the same th...
The Famous Cock is the first pub on the crawl in which somebody recognizes Gary. After Gary spent the first act claiming to be a local legend in Newton Haven, it quickly becomes apparent that nobody in town remembers who he is. However, the pub landlord only recognizes Gary because his reckless behavior got him banned during the first crawl. In ord...

Twins are a recurring motif in the Three Flavors Cornetto Trilogy. There’s a pair of zombie twins in Shaun of the Dead, while Bill Bailey plays twins in Hot Fuzz(although it’s only revealed that they’re twins near the end). In The World’s End, Sam meets up with two twins she used to be friends with. They turn out to be robotic and fight Gary in the...
Although Ariel in The Little Mermaidis nice to people, mermaids traditionally lure sailors to their deaths. In the pub, The Mermaid, Gary and the guys are seduced by siren-like robots. Also, the fact that the Network sends two blondes and a redhead to seduce them is a callback to the earlier “marmalade sandwich” scene.

The guys go to The King’s Head after Gary King banged his head against a wall a bunch of times until blood came out to prove that he hadn’t been body-snatched by the “blanks.” The name goes a little deeper than that, though, as this is also the pub where Gary’s personal struggles come to light.
