Thats right. There is a new movie coming out next year called "Royston Vasey". Thats right, it's THE LEAGUE OF GENTLEMEN MOVIE!!! The plot is that the inhabitants of Royston Vasey are forced to leave their town after something threatens it. And yes, the movie will feature Papa Lazarou.

"You're My Wife Now!"

EDIT: Just found out that cameo roles will go to Peter Kay (Phoenix Nights, Max And Paddy's Road To Nowhere) and Simon Pegg (Spaced, Shaun Of The Dead)

Oh you're so slow. My mate Hog told me about this...about 3 weeks ago, ROFL. But I don't share things :P

Apparently though, it will be quite far removed from what the Tv series was.

The League of Gentlemen? Do you mean the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen?

Well, I actually found out about it about 3 sweeks ago when I read Empire magazinbe and I just decided to do a thread on it right there. Removed from the tv series?!?!?!?!?! They can't do that! The series is brilliant!!! Well, except for series 3. That was just pure, unadulterated rubbish.

Nosebleeds *giggles*

Um, anyway. This is just what I've heard but he's pretty well up on his film stuff. I can't remember exactly what he said but apparently it might be quite different.

No, Yukio, The League of Gentlemen is something most completely different.
Thank God.

So the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen is a group of men who are very extraordinary. Should I assume that the Leage of Gentlemen is just a group of men who are, let's say, average and the least bit unique? Hrmm... XD

Well, The League Of Gentlemen is a comedy show here in the UK. It's set in the town of Roston Vasey (Which happens to be the real name of Roy Chubby Brown) and it's inhabitants are somewhat unusual. There's Pauline the restart officer, Tubbs and Edward the local store owners who hate people that aren't "Local" and Papa Lazarou and the less said about him the better. They have no super powers. And the reason the movie is called Royston Vasey is because they weren't allowed to call it "The League Of Gentlemen" as some people might think it was "The League Of Extrordinary Gentlemen".
