Yes, this is SO 1999 to those in the BBC-viewing audience, but i’ve just recently discovered the League of Gentlemen.
Not to be confused with the shabby film “The League of Extraordianary Gentlemen”, the League of Gentlemen is a BBC2 TV series from 1999-2002, and is (as Autumn put it) a sort of comedy version of Twin Peaks. It’s essentially a horror show set in the isolated village of Royston Vasey, but the characters are so wacky and the writing so funny that we’ve been totally hooked. There are enough running gags and plot threads that it’s hard to not watch the whole set in a sitting. We’ve just finished season 2, Blockbuster online has the DVDs, probably other places too. Good stuff, highly recommended.
