Repetition is a rhetorical device that happens when the same sound or word is repeated in a phrase. There are several types, and alliteration is one of them; it consists in repeating the first consonant sound of a word, putting several sounds like this in one phrase or sentence. In the example, we can see the repetition of the "b" and "p" sound as in "potato peeling pans" or "bangers on the bottoms"; as an example of repetition, the word "pans" appears several times.
