I love everything about this series, it is definately the best of the three (although the other tw are excellent!). It is beyond black comedy and delves into the whole world of human strangeness - including sex and medicine (yes - weird isn't it).

My only grumble is that Tubs and Edward are finally killed off - but again, even that is hilarious! Ever wondered where Little Britain got their ideas from - look no further - The League of Gentlemen are a million times better!

The Denton Family: They run an ordered home with no solids in the downstairs lavatory and regular lectures on self-abuse... Geoff, Mike and Brian: They are local businessman and best friends, although Geoff hates Mike. He also hates Brian. Pauline: The town's monstrously unsympathetic Restart Officer for whom the unemployed are a sad waste of skin. Barbara: A pre-op transsexual (with a voice deeper than Barry White) and the proprietor of Babs Cabs. Les McQueen: He never got over the golden days of his band Creme Brulee - when he could walk into a urinal and heads would turn...Read full review
