The Ladykillers, 1955
A star-studded cast is led by sinister Alec Guinness in this vintage slice of Ealing Comedy. A gang of thieves get more trouble than they bargained for when they rent rooms in the Kings Cross home of little old lady. The plan is to use the lodgings as a cover while planning a robbery, but things don't quite go according to plan. Guiness is marvellous, creepy and eccentric in equal measure.

The League Of Gentlemen's Apocalypse, 2005
When the residents of Royston Vasey discover they're fictional characters in a TV comedy and that their world is about to end, they break out and confront their creators in this big screen adaptation of the cult TV series. As ambitious, inventive, clever and odd as fans had a right to expect, this extends the scope of the series while simultaneously laying it to rest. A postmodern treat.
