10 Things You Never Noticed In The Cornetto Trilogy

9. Vauxhall Amperas (The World's End)

Some of the visual gags in The Cornetto Trilogy are so well hidden that you'd be forgiven for missing out on them entirely. The World's End has the general theme of everything in the town being exactly the same, something it hits home with various visual cues, but one of the smarter ones - and one which goes unnoticed by 99% of viewers - is that absolutely everyone in the town of Newton Haven drives the same car. Seriously, every time you see Gary and the gang waking through a car park, or down the street next to a load of parked up vehicles, they are all exactly the same model: various different colours of Vauxhall Amperas. Except guess what, that one joke about how everything is the same in Newton Haven (to an eerie degree) isn't all there is to the Amperas. Obviously. A joke that only works on one level? What is this, an Apatow production? No, the Vauxhall Ampera is also an electric car, which you power up by plugging it into an electricity source €“ of which the cars are always parked up next to, which foreshadows the eventual reveal that (spoilers) the town has been taken over by aliens who are turning the population into robot doubles. Robots are powered by electricity, so are the cars, you get it. Very clever, Wright and Pegg, very clever indeed.
