Americans React | THE LEAGUE OF GENTLEMEN | We Didn't Burn Him | REACTION

[@Rajamak]

This is definitely a show that should be watched as whole series to make sense.

[@lynby6231]

It doesn’t so much shock you as creep you out

[@waynekent7068]

Yeah, you can't watch bits of context. It's still funny but somehow less disturbing.

[@PrivateSi]

It's a pastiche of horror movie cliches, some given a British twist, many a surreal twist.. It's also extremely metropolitan-centric propaganda in a sense.. It's very anti small town life, cruelly caricaturing it. It's kind of Little Britain with more joined up storylines for each character, all set in a horror movie. A few actors played all the characters, and they're all strong characters too. It's a masterful example of the mundane turned into intriguing mystery and lots of laughs black comedy.

[@jimmynich4791]

Definitely, hilarious show.

[@bugs7139]

Should definitely watched as whole it’s like a sitcom with sketches that all join up to make a surreal comedy drama, which is very dark in tone and can be very creepy! It is one of the best BBC comedies ever made!

[@alistairthorn1122]

Roy Chubby Brown wasn't one of the writers. It was written by the cast and a guy called Jeremy Dyson, who is part of the group but doesnt appear on screen. It originally started as a BBC Radio 4 show called "On The Town with The League of Gentlemen", but Tubbs and Edward weren't in the original radio show.

[@jimmynich4791]

That's true, Royston Vassey is Chubby's real name and he was in it but he wasn't anything else to do with it.

[@craigcassidy6078]

Yes the town was named after chubby

[@kirstygunn9149]

Just to add to this comment ,the town in the show is named after Roy "Chubby" Brown's real name Royston Vasey. He appears in one( maybe 2) episode as the town mayor. But that is the only connection he has with the show.

That is Mark Gatiss, he also played Mycroft Holmes in Sherlock. Amongst other projects he’s written screenplays for Dr. Who and Sherlock.

[@mr.a8315]

KB, the show is like a dark comedy / part-horror soap opera. Some of the characters are easier to get into than others on first viewing, but after 1 or 2 full eps you will almost certainly get swept into the dark madness of it. Overall it is an outstandingly funny and clever series. The three main actors have talent oozing out of their ears. The actor in this clip you recognized from Game of Thrones is Mark Gatiss, he co-created the BBC series Sherlock (2010-2017). League of Gentlemen has lots of horror film references in it too. That 'We didn't burn him' sketch with the Scottish police officer investigating a missing person is a nod to Edward Woodward in 1971's cult horror film 'The Wicker Man'.

[@ninagray4441]

Most of the characters are played by the same three men. The police man is played by the same guy who was the hiker, who they didn't burn.

Great series, but Chubby Brown did not have anything to do with the writing as it was written by the three main actors plus Jeremy Dyson. He did appear in one episode as the Mayor of Royston Vasey. The three in that clip are Reese Shearsmith, Steve Pemberton and Mark Gatiss who are the writers and play most of the characters. Gatiss has also written for Sherlock and Doctor Who.

I’m pretty sure Roy Chubby Brown was only a bit part cameo in a couple of the episodes of the show and that was his only involvement, he wasn’t a writer or owt like that. And yes the actor you were asking about was in Game of Thrones and was in Wolf Hall, not sure he was in Black Mirror though, I am guessing that’s what you meant. He has been in a lot of things you might have watched which if you haven’t watched, you should watch, like Sherlock and Taboo which are both quality shows

[@garyleeharper]

Roy Chubby Brown had nothing to do with the creation or writing of the show. The guys who made it were fans of his comedy and just called the town after him as an inside joke. He did however appear in two episdoes - S2.E4 and S2.E6 playing the Mayor of the town.

[@gavingiant6900]

Chubby Brown's real name is Royston Vasey, which the towns name is named after in the program (the writers are fans of his). He did abit of acting in it as the Mayor. The three main actors you saw wrote the storyline for all of the program, along with one more that doesn't play a character (I think he is in one as an extra). The wife is Steve Pemberton, who plays Mick Garvey on a comedy/drama program called Benidorm. Full episodes can be reacted to and put on here, I've seen atleast two channels do it. If you want something even more weird and kinda funny in a weird way by the same people, try 'Inside No.9'.

I believe that these clips only work if you’ve seen the entire thing, in which stories evolve across the run of the series, and there are a colossal number of threads. Same with season 2 and ‘the special stuff’ plot. Series three are self contained episodes that only resolve at the end of the series. The Christmas special is a portmanteau of Hammer influenced comedy/horrors linked by ‘The Curse of Karit Pur’ which explains why the local vet, Mr Chinnery is so hapless and unfortunate (and funny). Good luck these days with getting Papa Lazarou on a YT reaction, although he is the stuff of nightmares and most fans favourite character. Me? I have a soft spot for Geoff Tibbs, the psychopathic failure with staggering anger management issues! There is a full length feature film and the plot of that is….out there. (I loved it).

[@bhurzumii4315]

Absolutely amazing show! It'll take you a couple of episodes to "get" the vibe but once you do, you'll be totally hooked! Also, a bit of trivia: The town is called "Royston Vasey" - that's Chubby Brown's real name and he actually pops up as the foul-mouthed mayor of the place!

I was supposed to be Didthathurt but had a keyboard stutter when I made the name but I didn't bother trying to change it when I realised it had the extra 'i' in it. Its my gaming name and I'll be streaming on Twitch soon with that name. The series really needs to be watched each episode in its entirety else its difficult to keep up with all of the dark sort of scenes, the taxi driver Babs is one thats really strange, its a bloke transitioning and he/she dresses as a woman in pink but has a hairy chest, really big dockers hand and a really deep voice. The vet Mr Chinnery ends up killing every creature he goes to save, the tortoise one is brilliant and funny plus another scene I can remember when he sets off on his bike and a dogs lead is caught in the bike and he drags it along, later on he's still riding and the lead is dragging along with one big bone still attached.

Watch them all it gets a lot darker along the way. Steve Pemberton (Tubbs) Reece Shearsmith (Edward) and Mark Gattis (hiker and policeman) along with Jeremy Dyson write all three series. Roy Chubby Brown makes a cameo appearance but is not a writer. The three main actors go on to portray a wide variety of hilarious and gruesome characters each with their own story lines. Personal favourites are Pauline the job club coordinator trying to guide her class of unemployed back into work. The Vet (Mr Chinnery) using his skill to tend the local animals back to health. And of course Papa Lazarou and his travelling circus.

[@alexmousley7213]

You're right about dark- it is very dark but, if you get into the style of it, absolutely hilariously dark! The writers/performers love horror movies and comedy, also, many of the characters are based on people they have met in real life- the shop keepers, especially Tubbs who was based on a woman they found running a little shop who was scared for no obvious reason and said things like, my husband is upstairs, he can hear. It took me a while to get into the series (and a girlfriend buying me the boxed DVD set)- but it is (twisted) genius and, if you like your humour served with a hefty dollop of twisted irony, utterly fantastic and unlike anything else.

[@PaulHolder]

Roy Chubby Brown had a cameo role in the show as the town Mayor but the writers are the three actors from these clips (they play almost all of the characters) and the shows director Jeremy Dyson. You were right about the actor playing the hiker and Policeman, Mark Gatiss. He was in Game of Thrones and also acted and wrote for Doctor Who and the Benedict Cumberbatch Sherlock series.

Mark Gatiss (the hiker and the policeman), Reece Shearsmith ( The male shopkeeper, Edward) and Steve Pemberton (The female shopkeeper, Tubbs) are the main 3 actors who play ALL the main characters in the show. They also co-wrote all the series too along with Jeremy Dyson. Chubby Brown didn't write the series but did star in a few episodes as the Mayor. To really get the show, you need to watch it all from the beginning but like with most BBC stuff you won't find full episodes of it on KZbin. In fact BBC stuff can be quite hard to find on KZbin, aside from a few clips here and there. A shame really because there's lots of TV gold from the BBC.
