Green Wing on Channel 4 anyone?

Just wondered if anyone was watching this and relating in a horrified kind of way to Harriet Schulenburg?
I cannot stop laughing at this grotesquely funny programme. Mark Heap is a comic genius. First Spaced, and now this.

It's really good fun, but I do find the camera work v dizzying. I did prefer Spaced.

Never saw Spaced but am loving Green Wing. Hysterical. And the hour goes so fast !

Flumpreviouslybutwhatdoiknow, we usually tape it. Not due to a hectic social life. Purely cos either me or dh usually fall asleep during it .

Repeated at 11.10pm on Saturdays if you don't mind watching it with a saucer-eyed Grobag-wearing little person over one shoulder...

It's funny you should say that bundle, I was at a ds-schoolfriend birthday party and another mum there worked with him in his early theatre days and also said he was delightful. Apparently his recorder-playing "technique" dates from this time. If you socialise with him on a regular basis please tell him I love him.

Yes she is Crunchie. Particularly relished scene where she arrived at work immaculate apart from having forgotten to put on her skirt. Good to see I am not the only person haring about after her family while not fully dressed

Yep that skirt thing is totally me in the morning, I send them to get dressed then run around in a pair of jeans and no top or whatever. My fave moment was the whiteboard when she 'couldn't find Robbie'

Have not seen too much of this, although the bits I have seen were really funny, i loved spaced as well. Also think scrubs is very funny

I watched it again just now (housewarming party). The more I see of it the more I love it. Also find the ad break man in a mini bloody hilarious with his silly jokes

Exactly.

Right I have hidden the brownies to stop early rising children searching them out for breakfast, and am off to bed now.

See you about tomorrow no doubt
