"The League of Gentlemen" won the Perrier Award at the Edinburgh Fringe in 1997 and subsequently were given their own series on Radio 4 before transferring to television.
This is A Local Book for Local People. There is nothing for you here. They have been described as "comedy's new macabre shock jocks", but Steve Pemberton, Mark Gatiss, Reece Shearsmith and Jeremy Dyson insist they only want to entertain each other. The League of Gentlemen were first noticed at Edinburgh in 1996 and scooped the prestigious Perrier Award the following year. Their first BBC show was Radio 4's On The Town With The League Of Gentlemen followed swiftly by the BBC 2 series which unleashed the freakish inhabitants of Royston Vasey.
You don't need an excuse to enjoy the charms of Barbara the transsexual taxi driver, Mr Chinnery the lethal vet, "on the job" with Pauline Campbell Jones or the fun of putting yourself into a child with Legz Akimbo, but the League have provided one anyway. In true Blair Witch style, A Local Book for Local People is found evidence, Tubbs' secret scrapbook, retrieved from the fire which destroyed the local shop. "I like to find things", says Tubbs. "When I am out on the moors burying people with my husband, Edward, I offen find things. Shiny things or things of intrest. Edward tells me not to pick them up, especially the brown ones, but I allways do". Edward, it transpires, has been living something of a double life--and not a particularly local one. "Edward has been given lots of medals for bravery in the war. He had lots of little medals called pesetas. I asked him why his skin turned brown and he said that he had been tortured".
As in the TV series, the attention to detail is astonishing. Every character emerges from the shadows on some pretext or other (local ad, news clipping, etc) for their own star turn. If you have a penchant for the absurd, bizarre or downright surreal, A Local Book for Local People's dark humour is for you. You will never leave the Royston Vasey book, Mickey love. --Iain Campbell --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
