The three Anniversary Specials were special in every possible sense of the word and a wonderful expression of and tribute to The League of Gentlemen's abiding love for their unique and unforgettable creation.

The League of Gentlemen Anniversary Specials review

15 years since the last series aired and 20 years since the comedy troupe came to be, The League of Gentlemen reunited for a brief, but brilliant visit to the wonderfully twisted town of Royston Vasey.

Anneka Honeyball, The National Student, 26th December 2017

The queasily wonderful The League of Gentlemen returned for three nights only, and has lost little of its grotesque charm nor its appalling beslimed humour. A fine swansong, but it's hard not to recall the urgent freshness, the otherness, with which Gatiss and co first invaded our screens: sic transit gloria vasey.

TLOG review: still the masters of creeping unease

Few people do creeping unease as well as The League of Gentlemen team and right from the start this long-awaited return did its best to raise the hairs on the back of the neck and turn saliva sour in the mouth.
