Title: Life at No.9
Post by: Newportnobby on February 05, 2014, 08:34:16 PM
For those fans of 'League of Gentlemen' (Royston Vasey not the rubbish film) there is a new series starts tonight at 10pm BBC2 from the same writers.
It looks from the trailers to be very dark humour :D >:D

Sorry Mick. After the daft looking man had spent 10 minutes looking daft in a wardrobe with a half presentable girl, I just had to turn it off

Looking forward to your next recommended TV programme. But I'm out that night.

Haven't watched it yet but that would be typical BBC - show the funny few seconds from a half hour prog - sorry, Chris ::)

The funny bits probably came after I switched it off.

It would probably have been better suited to be included in the series "Tales of the Unexpected"  :thumbsup:

The saucy image is included purely for Nobby  ;)

Must be just my odd sense of humour, then :laugh3:
Having played 'Sardines' at many a party in my yoof I could relate to it.
That, and the way the characters were all weirdly linked + the ending - I thought it was very good, unlike so called 'stand up' comedy which merely entails uncouth people shouting, swearing and gurning in the hope people will find it funny
