The show presents Garth Marenghi's Darkplace as though it were a real, low-budget television series, produced in the 1980s, and now getting its first screening; this hoax is the basis of the show's fictional frame. Darkplace's fictional show-within-a-show includes deliberately poor production and special effects, sub-par acting, and storylines that are "severely flawed and open-ended", this is interspersed with 'present-day interviews' with the 'cast'. The series' fictional premise is that some time in the 1980s, best-selling horror author Garth Marenghi and his publisher/publicist, Dean Learner, made their own low-budget television series with a single intent: "to change the evolutionary course of Man over a series of half-hour episodes." Set in Darkplace Hospital, "over the very gates of Hell," in Romford, East London, Garth Marenghi's Darkplace shows the adventures of Dr. Rick Dagless, M.D., as he fights the forces of darkness while simultaneously coping with the pressures of day to day admin. Within this fictional context, Marenghi wrote 63 teleplays from which 50 shows were produced; however, Channel 4 was eventually forced to reject the show due to its "radicality." Though, Marenghi also cites possible government suppression: "MI8, which is actually three levels above MI6, pulled the plug. And they did it because I knew the truth." The show's music soundtrack parodies the same subjects as the writing, and gained its composer Andrew Hewitt a B.A.F.T.A. Nomination as Best New Composer for Film and T.V. ************************ Notes: - I've included all extras that had any video, except the colour bars. The soundtrack is not included. - If you're using a good media player (such as GOMplayer), you don't have to unrar the subtitles, they will be extracted automatically. PLEASE NOTE: I cannot seed 24/7 and sometimes have connection issues, so please be patient. I will seed as fast as I can, as often as I can. Enjoy!

Well worth the download. Incredibly funny, with "special effects" that look like something from Mid-70's PBS shows like 'The Electric Company'... only not that good.

Just heard of it reading about Richard Ayoade at NYTimes, "Growing Funnier Each Serious Minute." Sounds promising. Thanks, and the subtitles work too, so thanks again for those. :-)

Awesome upload, any chance of getting the audio commentary along with the episodes, either as a separate file or as an alternate audio track in the video file?

Great torrent.

Okay quality.
Show not about audiovisual quality anyway, so this is absolutely fine.
This DL Worth it for the extras, let alone the show.
