Aaagh! It's the Mr. Hell Show! is an animated skitcom television show that aired on BBC Two from 28 October 2001 to 18 February 2002. The show was created by David Freedman and Alan Gilbey after the greeting card line about a painfully honest demon created by cartoonist Hugh MacLeod. The basic format was a series of sketches linked by the eponymous Mr. Hell, a Satan-esque host voiced by comedian Bob Monkhouse – the last series before his death in 2003. Mr. Hell delights in making his guests as miserable as possible, and also discusses his own personal problems, to add to the general sense of desolation.
