    twas good when he just stabbed him with the scalpel.

    Some of the comedy is a bit too odd though

    Hmm, watched it for a bit, but didn't really get into it very much. Might try again next time it's on.

    I reckon it is one of the best new comedy, if not the best, shows on at the moment.
    Such classics as the stabbing, the "did you just through you breast at me" , the sperm locket, waxing an Owl and the motorbike in the lift. I'm laughing just thinking about it.

    The only slightly amusing thing in this show was where they swapped cigaratte packets outside because the womans packet said "causes birth defects" and the guys packet said "lowers sperm count". The rest of the show has been ok to bad

    Outstanding.... the best thing to hit our screens since The League did the terminal third series....

    For me classic comedy is when you find things in everyday life reminding you of scenes from it... happened the other day when posting something... "£2.64 to send to Australia" I find I laugh about it more days after seeing it...

    Can't really fail though with so many top comedy actors in it... from Coupling, Black Books, Spaced... anyone know where the blonde Doctor (McCartney) is from, I know his face but don't know from where....

    Her name was McGill, and she called herself 'Lil, but everyone knew her as Nancy

    Blonde one was also in Hippies ( it also had one of the girls from Smack the pony), a BBC2 comedy which frankly rocked, but was only on for about 6 episodes or so

    Green Wing is one of the few programs I watch anymore, the humour is spot on for me.

    Dr Mac is from Notting Hill, when he goes to visit Julia Roberts character and he's the other journalist in the lift. Hugh Grants character has a bunch of flowers and they have that whole conversation about his (Grandmother/Mother????) in hospital!

    I didn’t realise it was the same person until my sister told me! He’s great in that as well…or so I think

    Watched every one apart from the first (I think)
    Humour kills me - but then I have a weird sense of humour anyway!
