The Full Monty Series Trailer

“The Full Monty gang is back after 25 years, swapping their stage costumes for dognapping, racing pigeons and one very unconventional hostage situation. Gaz might be older but he’s no wiser, and best mate Dave refuses to get sucked into any more of his antics. But when tragedy strikes, the whole Monty gang must pull together for a common purpose: to honor an old friend.” (FX Networks)

The Full Monty series stars Robert Carlyle (Gaz), Mark Addy (Dave), Lesley Sharp (Jean), Hugo Speer (Guy), Paul Barber (Horse), Steve Huison (Lomper), Wim Snape (Nathan), Tom Wilkinson (Gerald), and Talitha Wing (Destiny). The series is written by Simon Beaufoy and Alice Nutter.

Statue of Alice Nutter, one of the accused Pendle witches, in Roughlee, Lancashire, England -  Graham Demaline

Well, Agnes Nutter is a reference to Alice Nutter, a real woman hanged in a  Pendle witch hunt. Alongside her also a couple of people from the Device family were tried, so the ‘Device’ is the nod to that.

Six of the Pendle witches came from one of two families, each at the time headed by a woman in her eighties: Elizabeth Southerns (a.k.a. Demdike[a]), her daughter Elizabeth Device, and her grandchildren James and Alizon Device; Anne Whittle (a.k.a. Chattox), and her daughter Anne Redferne. The others accused were Jane Bulcock and her son John Bulcock, Alice Nutter, Katherine Hewitt, Alice Grey, and Jennet Preston.

As for ‘Anathema’, I am not sure. Wiki says: 

grave of the Nutter family; alleged resting place of Alice Nutter, tried and executed as a witch.
