Summaries

Funky hospital-based sketch-comedy-drama type show.

An offbeat comedy from the team behind 'Smack the Pony', set in a hospital, and is very much character-based, with storylines involving a staff liasion officer who hates people, a humourless consultant who thinks he's funny, and a handful of sexual predators and inadequates.—lordedmund

From the award-winning team behind Smack the Pony comes Green Wing, the new comedy series that's part soap opera, part drama - but all surreal and innovative. Set in a hospital, despite a general lack of medical attention, Green Wing follows new surgical registrar Dr Caroline Todd through her first day at work and beyond, starting out as she means to go on - dishevelled and under-deodorised having spent the night in her car. Among the bizarre cast of characters, who are the good guys and who are the bad guys - and what sort of Guy is Guy Secretan, the smooth talking anaesthetist?—Liz Ward
