Welcome to Royston Vasey
Prismark1021 May 2018
The first episode of The League of Gentlemen shook up the sketch show format and moved it took a twisted dark road.

Royston Vasey is the real name of comic Chubbie Brown but is also the name of an isolated village with grotesque characters. Pauline the Restat officer to train the unemployed to get jobs, Barbara the pre op taxi driver who is rather butch and gruff, who goes in graphic details about the sex change op she plans to have. Mr Chinnery the well meaning but incompetent vet. The stands outs being Edward and Tubbs the murderous couple who runs a local shop for local people. Once you set foot inside, you are unlikely to leave alive.

The first episode will equally make you laugh and leave you shocked. Weird or wonderful, only you can decide.
