Sounds good as long as the gentlemen in question aren't extraordinary ;)

If it's more like S1 and S2 and less like S3, then I can see this working pretty well :)

Why don't they do a Amicus style film, like the Christmas special?

That was the best thing they ever did!

Yeah, the Christmas Special was fantastic! It strayed from the usual LoG formula yet was brilliant in it's own right. I loved how dark it looked as well :clap:

they hava said for along time (before season 3 in fact) that they were going to make a film. so its hardly cashing in....

And I would have thought they would somehow resurrect the two characters that should 9and probably will be) in the film!

Yeah cashing in/ selling out, well done lads, im sure you'd turn down the chance to make a feature length film version of characters you've created?

I hope so, the third season didn't work for me at all.

I reckon it will be back on form to the format of seasons 1 & 2 to be honest...

I reckon Xmas Special format, as the sketch format for seasons 1 & 2 cannot really be transferred to film.

The League are well known for loving portmaneau (spelling?) horrors, and since their most successful episode followed this format they'd be foolish not to. :D

I didn't like the Xmas special either, which was a shame as the first 2 series were excellent.
