Green Wing

Have you ever seen-

... a funny comedy called Green Wing, where they have a-

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

... a sport called, a thing called a topmiler on his head, and it's called geeball.

It's still a bit janky, but you sort of then think, well, in two years, what will that look like? It'll just look like...

It looks like an episode of The Green Wing or something, yeah.

Who knows? But, like...

it is becoming a bit more pervasive.

A- and from then on, Talkback produced an amazing list of hits.

They produced the, The Day Today, Never Mind the Buzzcocks, Big Train, QI, Green Wing.

The list goes on and on and on.

You know, as I was watching it, I was like, "This might be my favorite sketch show we watched." And then I went, "Oh, but The Day Today."

but it's like people that I know that love comedy, um, in a, like, quite obsessive way would have found stuff like, um, League of Gentlemen, um, Green-

...

Green Wing.

Yeah.

Black Books, all of that kind of stuff.

Yeah, okay.

So I have loved Oliver Criss since Green Wing.

Oh,

yeah.

She began life in the Oxford Revue, and went on to co-write and develop the groundbreaking female-led sketch show, Smack the Pony, which won two International Emmys.

Her many credits include Green Wing, Friday Night Dinner, Breeders, Channel 4's Big Mood, and BBC's We Might Regret This, alongside Phil Ross's How to Please a Woman, Off the Rails, and Pride, Prejudice & Zombies.

Sally has three neurodivergent children.

Her elder son has Down syndrome and autism, and is a self-advocate, and together they made the award-winning 2016 documentary, A World Without Down Syndrome.

There's a show that I really like.

That was on the BBC, I believe, called Green Wing.

It is a hysterical show about doctors.

And the reason I bring this up is because shows like ER and The Pit, you watch the doctor show and you learn about the people that are in the hospital, all the patients and stuff.

It pulls the story along.

In Green Wing, it had nothing to do with the patients.

Literally only had, like, you never even learned any patient's name.

You barely ever saw them even interacting with patients.
