We'll have no trouble here!

I have been watching the first series of "The League of Gentlemen" on DVD this morning.
It is one of the most memorable British comedy show in ages.
I love its unique mix of comedy and horror.
The strange residents of Royston Vasey ("Welcome to Royston Vasey: You'll Never Leave!") would fit quite comfortably in a "Twilight Zone" or "Outer Limits" episode, reminiscent of horror films such as "The Wicker Man."
Instead, Mark Gatiss, Steve Pemberton and Reece Shearsmith played it for laughs. It was a brilliant combination -- one that has me cackling and cowering.
