About this listen

 The winners of the 1997 Perrier Comedy Award at the Edinburgh Fringe in their first Sony Award-winning radio series. 'Cruelly intelligent, deeply hilarious, unmissably good' - Glasgow Herald. Welcome to Spent - an isolated and rather odd town somewhere in the North. Its singular inhabitants lead blackly comic lives, from Dr Chinnery, the lethally incompetent vet and Pauline, the monstrous Restart Officer at the Job Centre, to the hideously exacting Dentons who impose their disturbing habits and pet toads upon their visiting nephew Ben. These and other memorable townsfolk are ferried around by Barbara, a taxi driver half way through his sex change, and served by Mr Iingleby, who brings a whole new meaning to the term 'small shopkeeper'. Murderously funny and acutely observed, ‘The League of Gentlemen's’ highly acclaimed brand of comedy shows human nature at its most extreme - and most hilarious.

I Love the league more than life itself! So much fun, interesting play of the TV show in its infancy.

Okey cokey pig in a pokey!

Very enjoyable - I'd recommend this to any League of Gentlement fans. I have this and series 2 and 3 - I listen to them all, wait a few months to forget the jokes a bit and then listen again. I've done that several times! It's a work of genius! Only thing I'd like too is series 1 which doesn't seem to be available. Thanks to the creators of this for making me laugh many times over.

Brilliant!

The League Of Gentlemen TV series is the best British comedy show ever…and I was brought up on Monty Python, Viv Stanshall’s “Rawlinson End” and The Young Ones! I didn’t think anything could be funnier, darker or weirder than that lot…until TLOG showed up!
If I was talented enough to write the perfect comedy series for myself, then TLOG would be it.
I missed this early version of “Royston Vasey” when it was originally on Radio as the goings-on in “Spent”, so catching up was priceless! This is unmissable for anyone who loves the TV series.
Don’t think…just BUY!
You’ll thank yourself later.

“Spent” evolving into “Royston Vasey” is so funny I didn’t even notice that Tubbs and Edward hadn’t moved in yet!
