difficult to compare this hospitalseries to anything else: it stands on its own and how! this is first class comedy that combines well captured characters with good visuals and an enormous amount of good jokes. it keeps coming from start till end, every episode again, without getting boring. it's absurdistic sometimes, sarcastic/cynical on ohter times, often/mosly hilarious and always intelligent. no cheap humour in this one.
seeing one episode makes you instantly wonder how it will continue, so before you know you're through the first series and most likely in desperate need for the second series and the special.

One of the best comedies in years, Green Wing combines surreal visual gags with sharp observational comedy. It has a cast that's a who's who of TV comedy including faces from Spaced, Black Books, Peep Show and Brass Eye. As well as this, there's even a cliffhanger to make you want to get series 2.

The best British comedy ever.
And could possibly be the best comedy in the world.
You couldn't be anything other than crazy to star in this.
Or even to watch this.
Although it is very rude it is very funny.
So just consider buying this item.

If your going to buy this dvd, you may aswell buy series 2 aswell because you will be kicking yourself that you have to wait to watch some more episodes. Has to be one of the funniest things to come out of channel 4, full of laughs and a good story to it. Easily worth 9.99 and both series at 19.98 is even better. Highly recommended, cant say a bad thing about it other than it was finished too early. Needed another series atleast.

Has to easily be the best most accomplished undderatted comedy show ever! this show is so good it takes all modern generic comedy and spits on them! this takes comedy to a whole new level it's really sad to see this got canned after 2 seasons its a gem of a show so many great laugh out loud moments and so worth £9.99 basically if you have never seen this show, buy this. Its quite easily one to put up there with the classics. A great show sadly stopped before they had a chance to do anything more.
