## Description

Product Description League of Gentlemen, The: Complete Series 1 (DVD) desertcart.com In some grim and isolated corner of northern England lurks the town of Royston Vasey, where the local cab driver is a hirsute preoperative transsexual, the local butcher sells his special stuff to select customers, and the local employment counselor thinks people are like pens: "If they don't work, you shake 'em. If they still don't work, you chuck 'em away!" But if you're not local, you should steer clear of the local shop, no matter how tempted you are by its precious things. To call The League of Gentlemen a black comedy would be an understatement. Its bleak humor owes as much to Samuel Beckett as it does to Monty Python, so those who like their laughs served warm are in for a shock. The show is the most wickedly inventive comedy to come out of Britain since Eddie and Patsy staggered onto our screens in Absolutely Fabulous, and like that groundbreaking series it proudly ignores the boundaries of good taste. Part sketch comedy, part bizarre soap opera, the narrative jumps back and forth between more than a dozen major characters, all played by the three performers who cowrote the show. These characters range from the odd--a vet who accidentally kills all of his patients--to the thoroughly disturbing, like Edward and Tubbs, the inbred proprietors of the Local Shop, who are willing to go to any lengths to prevent the building of a new road through their beloved town. As the series progresses many of the plot threads begin to twist together, revealing hints that some deeper and more sinister plot might be unfolding in Royston Vasey. The League of Gentlemen manages to be both hilarious and chilling, thanks to the terrific writing and performances that are as subtle as they are grotesque. You have never seen anything like The League of Gentlemen, but like butcher Hilary Briss's special customers, you're sure to be back for more. --Simon Leake P.when('A').execute(function(A) { A.on('a:expander:toggle_description:toggle:collapse', function(data) { window.scroll(0, data.expander.$expander[0].offsetTop-100); }); }); Set Contains: Join the cast and co-writer Jeremy Dyson as they indulge in some "local gossip" on the audio commentary, happily reminiscing about making this first series and discussing the origins of the innumerable characters and sketches, as well as pointing out hidden jokes and movie references galore. Also on this excellently produced disc are entertaining character biographies (Pop's favorite lunch from Greggs is "Chicken & Mushroom Pie", the sinister Denton twins are happiest when "Courting the Lords of Misrule"), an archive of the show's theatrical origins, and a treasure-trove of deleted scenes. --Mark Walker See more

Review: Great Tv - This is a Fantastic television show
Review: Worth every penny and then some. - I will make this very easy for you....buy all three seasons, only watch them in the proper order, at least for the first time through, and you will be rewarded with the most unbelievable viewing experience. This is without a doubt the funniest, best acted, best written British TV show ever. The League of Gentlemen are the 3 best actors I have ever seen. Each play around 30 characters in the 3 seasons, most of which are reoccurring characters that come alive and evolve over the course of the show. Every so often, new characters come in and go, but the core characters endear and grow. That is why it is very important to watch this in the proper order as the characters grow, you grow with them. This troupe of 3 male actors is best when portraying women, which seems to be an English thing, but all of the characters are amazing. Listen....I cannot do this series justice here. I can only tell you that if you watch this show from beginning to end, it will become clear. The end of the show is just perfect. The characters all fall into place. They all make sense and you will understand the genius of the 4 who wrote the series, and the 3 of them who bring the characters to life. Please, I beg you, try it...you will not believe how well crafted it is.

*by J***T on January 3, 2016*

My husband and I used to watch this several years ago and we realized that we continue to quote the series even today, often confusing our adolescent daughter. So I decided to buy the first season as a Christmas gift for my husband this year. Be warned: while very funny, this series is also very disturbing. There is quite a bit of implied violence, cannibalism, and sexual assault. There is also a transgender taxi driver who seems a bit dated by today's standards (presented as yet another weird character in the village who regales her clients with all the gory details of her sex change process while driving them around). And yet. . . there is also so much that is subversively funny. I don't regret watching this again but perhaps we shouldn't have let our 14 year old watch the first few episodes with us. Oops.
