The League of Gentlemen -- Christmas Special | DVD | (25/11/2002)
from £5.21
| Saving you £14.78 (283.69%)
| RRP A Gothic-comedy masterpiece, The League of Gentlemen Christmas Special is a horrific anthology of three related stories, all set in Royston Vasey, which takes its inspiration as much from the writings of MR James and Edgar Allan Poe as the low-budget Hammer and Amicus shockers that the team parody so affectionately. The stories are all linked by the Dickensian device of Reverend Bernice receiving unexpected guests on Christmas Eve: the first concerns troubled married couple Charlie and Stella becoming unwittingly involved in voodoo and witchcraft; the second features the horrendous Herr Lipp in a Nosferatu skit that reveals the terrible truth about what really goes on in Duisburg; while the third, and best, tells of the horrible hereditary curse that afflicted Dr Chinnery's great-grandfather. This one-off special distils all the League's penchant for disturbing, twisted characterisation and macabre humour into a single hour; the result is one of the most daring "comedies" ever seen on British TV. On the DVD: The League of Gentlemen Christmas Special on disc contains the hour-long main feature accompanied by a diverse and entertaining array of extras. There's another illuminating group commentary; a 20-minute documentary "Tales from Behind the Crypt", in which we get to see excerpts from the team's first ensemble effort, "Highgate House of Horror"; a chat with composer Jody Talbot; and the League themselves "In Conversation" with Paul Jackson in the complete Radio 4 broadcast. A selection of out-takes, extended scenes, character biographies and a photo gallery are all worthwhile, but best of all is a Jackanory special with Mark Gatiss as the Victorian Dr Chinnery telling the Gothic tale of "The Curse of the Karrit Poor", a spot-on Arthur Conan Doyle spoof. --Mark Walker

| RRP Until the 1840s, the practice of medicine had remained relatively unchanged since the days of Ancient Greece. Germ theory revolutionised the medical world however and in the next 60 years it was transformed into a modern science. This fascinating dramatic series follows the discoveries that changed the world forever, shifting from country to country as it travels the world in search of the scientific advances that saved countless lives. From Edward Jenner’s rural English practice to Louis Pasteur’s laboratories in the breweries and silk farms of France and on to Robert Koch’s surgery in Prussia, this BBC series brings to life the work and pressures of some of the best known scientists in history. Episodes cover Ignaz Semmelweis and the search for the cause of puerperal fever, Louis Pasteur and Robert Koch separately establishing the link between bacteria and disease and becoming bitter rivals; Pasteur’s discovery of vaccines; the hunt for the Cholera germ; the first successful use of a vaccine against rabies; and Paul Ehrlich and salvarsan, the first ‘miracle’ drug. Based on the book by Robert Reid and starring BAFTA winning actor Arthur Lowe (Dad’s Army), Frank Gillard, James Grout (Inspector Morse), Antonia Pemberton (A Passage to India) and Michael Gough (Batman, Sleepy Hollow), the series was nominated for two BAFTAs – Best Specialised Series and Best Actor.

But the outing turns tragic when Adela suddenly comes running from one of the caves-scratched, bleeding and terribly frightened. News of the incident quickly spreads across the whole of India...igniting a powder keg of tension just waiting to explode. A rich tapestry woven of the clash between cultures, A Passage to India is supreme entertainment, and a visual wonder that is truly spellbinding!
