The League of Gentlemen

The League of Gentlemen return to the stage for their first UK tour in over 12 years with their live show, captured exclusively for the BBC. The tour features Bafta Award-winning comedy legends Reece Shearsmith, Steve Pemberton, Mark Gatiss and Jeremy Dyson bringing their deliciously dark and unhinged fictional village of Royston Vasey to theatres and arenas across the country. The critically acclaimed black comedy, which originally ran from 1999 - 2002 on BBC Two, returned to television screens with three brand new programmes for Christmas 2017 to celebrate 20 years since the show began.

Renowned adventurer Allan Quatermain leads a team of extraordinary figures with legendary powers to battle the technological terror of a madman known as "The Fantom." This "League" comprises seafarer/inventor Captain Nemo, vampiress Mina Harker, an invisible man named Rodney Skinner, American secret service agent Tom Sawyer, the ageless and invincible Dorian Gray, and the dangerous split personality of Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde.

In an alternate Victorian Age world, a group of famous contemporary fantasy, SF and adventure characters team up on a secret mission.

Together they form The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. When a criminal mastermind known only as 'The Fantom' plots to hurl the world into war, The League must race across the globe to foil the masked madman's insidious scheme. But they may not have reckoned with the traitor in their midst…
