I think these two are more cultured than your average /tv/ poster desu

Certain interior scenes actually were filmed in front of a live audience. The rest of the show was played to the same audience and their laughter was recorded.

I never had a problem with the presence of the audience, honestly. The League of Gentlemen originated as a stage act and I think a lot of the sketches naturally suited that live, theatrical feel.
>>
After the first series, this show declined rapidly. I have no desire to see it return, even though I'm a fan of the first series.
>>
>>81996204

Inside No. 9 has been really good I think they have a good edge to their writing right now which could make for a good show.

Doesn't look like they will do a new series, just a special so we'll see.
>>
>>81995578
Gatiss will butcher it

Psychoville and Inside No. 9 have been mostly good and occasionally kino. And Pemberton and Sheersmith's other small roles have been decent even in trash like Benidorm.

Meanwhile Gatiss has been writing shit Dr Who episodes and putting in meme performances in Game of Thrones and Taboo. Should stick to writing documentaries about Horror films and books
>>
>>81996459
>meme performances
what does this even mean?
>>
Plymouth?
>>
hilary the butcher was by far the best sketch, loved that you never actually found out what the 'special stuff' was
>>
I watched a few eps of this, got a few laughs. But soon tired of it.
>>
>>81996459
He was great in Taboo m8 don't hate.
>>
MAU MAU
>>
A frog delivery for a Mr. Denton?
>>
>>81997460

It was foreskins anon, the butcher was called Hillary Briss
>>
>>81997559
he was totally hamming it up, something almost straight out of black adder ffs
>>
>>81998834
That part called for ham, and he delivered. The over the top makeup was a bit dodgy though.
>>
>>81996505
It means nothing.
Plebs use it as a derogatory observation, in an effort to sound funny and right.
>>
>>81996459
Question is whether the others can contain Gatiss at this point, possibly not.

Spike managed it with Peter Sellers in the Goons but Spike Milligan was a once a generation force of nature and Jeremy Dyson isn't that.
>>
I do wonder if there is anything they can actually do.

>Papa Lazarou - just forget it, it never happened, burn the tapes.
>Barbara - hate speech.
>Pauline - misogyny, 'ban bossy'.

LoG came out at a strange time when political correctness was temporarily fairly relaxed, we were post-X and it was generally thought most people weren't racist or sexist so we didn't need to be so uptight. A lot of it is laughing at stuff that you'd see in 70s films but it takes a certain ironic view of things to understand that.

This was before the tumblr, SJWs and Twitter hate mobs.

We live in more Stalinist times today when nobody is innocent of ideological crimes even if they are (subconscious micro-aggressions have no defence). LoG is fairly macro-offensive at its best.

Don't forget the predatory homosexual/pedosexual German
>>
>>82000569
Indeed. The list just goes on really.

Maybe it will just be an unironic one-hour performance from Legz Akimbo about the evils of manspreading.

I'm surprised the beeb gave the new episode approval. LoG, like Monkey Dust, seemed like something the beeb would sweep under the carpet and pretend never existed lest they trigger their guardian reading executives.

He was the mayor. I was always really surprised that the bbc was fine with Roy "gas the pakis, race war now" Chubby Brown appearing.
