Easter Eggs

Someone else found some nice references in the game?

I found one, but it was a very good one.
The healer in the first station (Holborn, I think) is called Julian Drew and has raised 7 children on song. Very nice Sound of Music reference.

Anyway, are there other easter eggs like this?

In tribute to Mario, there are portals in the ground of some levels which lead to hidden stashes that consist entirely of money, or ones which are full of epic creatures.

Oh, was that a Mario-specific reference? Ofcourse, I remember those secret pipes in Mario, but I thought that here, it was just some general thingie.

How many games that you have heard of have holes in the ground that lead to places which have tonnes of gold, other than Mario?

All joking aside, you're right.

Is there really a Wirt's Leg? Wow, I didn't know. At least haven't encountered it yet. So please don't spoil its location for me.

You find a kid's leg, and afterwards he says you can call him Wart. It's like the second quest in the game, so you've probably already completed it.

Ah, yes, of course. That one was so obvious that I missed it.

I don't think there's yet another sidequest with it, or a secret Cow-Level.

Another one is Joanne in Charing Cross Station. She is a parody of a certain J.K. Rowling, especially when you do a couple of quests for her. The most telling being "Find the Dobster".

I never was much of a Harry Potter fan, so I missed that reference. What's a Dobster?

Yup, it's Dobby, the crazy and loveable house elf. Even if that didn't tip you off, there are other references to how she made tonnes of money by using a simple and stupid idea. I like the part when she said; "after that, all that I touched turned to gold", or something like that.
