I am a League of Gentlemen junkie. I love that damn series. Is anyone else up on it? If so, who’s your favorite character(s)?
There’s just so many to choose from but for me it has to be Tubbs and Edward of the local shop.
“Are you local?”
“What’s all this shouting, we’ll have no trouble here!”
“This is a local shop, for local people!”
“He tried to touch the precious things.”
(with crossbow in hand) “Don’t worry, Tubbs, they won’t get far!”
“You lied to me, Edward. There is a Swansea!”
“Lines and lines and lines and lines and lines!”
“No. I’m a lady.”
Choice lines that don’t really work out of context.
Less obviously, I think the Mister Briss the butcher bits are genius, Papa Lazarous deserves his own show, Steve McQueen of Creme Brulee is a classic tragic/comic persona, the Legs Akimbo theater group is more fleshed out and funny than most sit-coms, and the job centre story line should be spun off as a feature film.
Steve, Mark, and Reece are amazing comedic actors and deserve multiple awards. And Jeremy for writing, too.
If you haven’t seen it, check it out. You’ll never leave.
Just thought I’d gush.
