A New Year!
Welcome to my first post of 2012! Most of the updates to this site are via Twitter these days so don't miss the Official Leagueofgentlemen.co.uk Twitter page Here
I have only one question for you, how good is Sherlock? Co written by Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffett it has pace, cracking dialogue and as it is based on the original Sherlock stories it sparkles with suspense and true drama.
Fan Page
It occured to me as the twitter followers flowed over 1000 that even though it is 13 years since the show first aired on TV The League of Gentlemen still have a loyal following and whilst I know why I love them, I wondered why you still love them? So, via Twitter I have asked fans to tell me and I will publish a new one each week!
If you would like to write one, visit us on twitter and I will tell you how!
The first one can be read here!

Hi all!
It has been a long time since I have updated the site (and this page) but today I have sadly had to remove the greeting cards page but have added League of Gentlemen Inspired glow in the dark halloween tshirts!
I have been reliably informed...as will anyone with twitter who follows Reece, that Psychoville will not return for a third series but they are doing something else together! Yay!
Even better news is that all the Gents are doing a Horrible Histories together so that will be a real good treat!
With Reece, Jeremy and Mark being on Twitter there isn't much use for a news page...times move on, after all when I started this site it was in the last century!
If anyone has any ideas on what I could do with this site to keep it going, let me know! I am on twitter @jasonkenny and @TheLeagueofGent
Thanks for stopping by!

Gold confirms Gatiss, Roberts 'Who' return
From Digitalspy.com
Murray Gold has revealed that Mark Gatiss and Gareth Roberts have penned episodes for Matt Smith's first series of Doctor Who.
Gatiss wrote 'The Unquiet Dead' and 'The Idiot's Lantern' for previous series, while Roberts penned 'The Shakespeare Code' and 'The Unicorn and the Wasp', and also co-wrote 'Planet Of The Dead'.
The show composer told musicfromthemovies that his own approach would alter because of the exit of David Tennant from the lead role and replacement of showrunner Russell T. Davies with Stephen Moffat.
Gold said: "In all honesty I make refinements anyway, when I score Steven's episodes, because they do come at the story from a different angle.
"I don't know if you can even talk about a single approach, musically, to all of the episodes as they've been done so far - there's a different approach to each one - and that'll be the same again."
He added: "I mean with Mark Gatiss and Gareth Roberts and people like that writing episodes, you know what their episodes are like from previous series.
"So it's going to be that, with Steven's comments, and Matt's performance are going to be different and they might be different in structure somehow... every episode might not involve so much running down corridors! I don't know."
Gold also confirmed that he has "been working" on an update of the show's opening theme music.
