Anyone else loved Green Wing?

I've been watching clips of Green Wing on YouTube. I'd forgotten how good it was.
Any other fans out there?

It was brilliant and I fell madly in love with Juian Rhind-Tutt (sp?) in it. Also the first time I'd seen Stephen Mangan in anything - an awful character but well played. I loved Olivia Coleman as the scatty wotking mum. So many quirky characters and the whole thing was so off the wall.

I loved it 😁

@CaptainMyCaptain I used to see JRT on my commute and I can confirm he is a bona fide Thing Of Beauty.

I love it, first watched it when it came out and have watched it a few times over the years and got DP in to it.

FUCK ME, THERE IS A WOLF!

Another great clip here

Medic dad said this and MASH were the only realistic hospital dramas...

I might give this a rewatch, is it still on all4?

sorbetseason · 17/08/2022 13:18

Omg OP you are so right it is time to rewatch this genius.

FILM AND TV MAKERS: why is this Julian not in more stuff?! Hot AND funny, it’s the holy grail surely.

I loved it. I have the box set, a possession that will never be kondo'd. Too many great characters to choose from, but the HR woman was a particular highlight. Also fell in love with JRT, very easy on the eye!

SheilaWilde · 17/08/2022 13:30

I love Green Wing! It's just so well written and cast. I wish they'd make a new series with original cast but, obviously, older.

calmlakes · 17/08/2022 14:43

I did enjoy it.

DesMoulinsRouge · 17/08/2022 14:50

It was fantastic, rewatched a few months ago on my box set. Dr Statham and Joanna are my favourite.

AnotherEmma · 17/08/2022 14:56

Yes yes yes
Loved it
Was sad they didn't make more

VeronicaBeccabunga · 17/08/2022 15:00

Huge fan!
Mark Heap - just hysterical.

MayMoveMayNot · 17/08/2022 15:04

Loved it! Where can I watch it? Grin

NellyNothing · 17/08/2022 15:05

I loved it. It was brilliant.

Sulusu · 17/08/2022 15:06

It had such an amazing cast! I will watch anything with Mark Heap in it, but everyone in Green Wing is hilarious.

I also have the boxset and will never part with it.

One of my favourite shows and still so watchable.

BluesandClues · 17/08/2022 15:15

Amazing show with fantastic humour!

Fluffyfluffflufffluff · 17/08/2022 15:20

You've got a giiiiinger chiiiiiiiiiiild!

emerald1981 · 17/08/2022 15:43

I loved it. The first time I made my husband watch it he thought it was crazy but after a few episodes he loved it too. Mark Heap is a comedy genius.

whentheraincame · 17/08/2022 15:44

It's all about Michelle Gomez for me.

rejectshampoodemandtherealpoo · 17/08/2022 15:45

Not as good as Spaced though.

Chocolatepringles · 17/08/2022 15:50

I love anything with Tamsin Greig.

@whentheraincame yes! Michelle Gomez is amazing in anything she's in. Pleasantly surprised to see her in The Chilling Tales of Sabrina
