Garth Merenghi's Darkplace is a British horror parody television series created for Channel 4 by Richard Ayoade and Matthew Holness.
Darkplace is presented as a lost classic: a television series produced in the 1980s, though never broadcast at the time. The presentation features commentary from many of the original cast, where characters such as Marenghi and Learner reflect on making the show. Darkplace parodies the fashion, special effects, production gaffes and music of low-budget '80s television, as well as the modern practice of including commentary tracks on DVD releases of old films and television shows.
The series aired on Adult Swim in 2007 and became a part of the network's The Brit Block.
