Psychoville - Season 1
From the team behind cult classic The League of Gentlemen, this bizarre gothic comedy sees a chain of events triggered when a mysterious letter writer contacts five seemingly disparate characters with the chilling message: 'I know what you did'.
An embittered hook-handed clown, a desperately misguided midwife, a lovestruck telekinetic dwarf, a blind avaricious collector and a murder-obssessed manchild: all are affected in different ways by the letters, and their already bizarre lives are hilariously turned on their heads. As the series progresses, the characters are forced to confront what happened to them in the past and the secret that binds them together.
