Eight extra dates have been added to the new tour from The League of Gentlemen.

Tickets for the initial shows went on sale yesterday and most immediately sold out.

The new dates include a show at the 02 Arena on September 23.

This announcement follows the critical acclaim Reece Shearsmith, Steve Pemberton, Mark Gatiss and Jeremy Dyson have received for the BBC2 Christmas specials which have arrived on our television screens this week to celebrate 20 years since the original show began.
