In a busy hospital, a team of demented workers plays out a surreal soap opera featuring clandestine affairs, manic mind-games and frankly dangerous activities. This is Green Wing, a Pythonesque take on a Carry On film complete with outrageous bad-taste gags and some terrific performances from a talented team of comedy stars. Part sitcom, part sketch show, all funny. We are delighted to present this special TV event looking at the phenomenon of Green Wing, with a host of clips and an on-stage interview with creator Victoria Pile and (we hope) cast members Tamsin Greig,Stephen Mangan and Julian Rhind-Tutt. :lvdr:

*breaks down in a fit of disappointment*

I can't afford to stay in London for 4 days. Or indeed go back down. I MUST MOVE TO ENGLAND. NOW.

I shall pack; forthwith.

I think we are all going to be in for a shock on Wednesday night, if Julian has had his hair cut and dyed!

Sorry we wern't allowed to take photo's (there was an offical photographer there) and we were told that there wouldn't be an opportunity to get things signed. Hoever it was a good night JUlian was sat on the same side of the theatre as i was, and he seemed a liitle nervous. Tamsin and Steve made him take of his beanie hat so we all got to see his now brown hair, which really didn't look at bad, and every time they played a clip he sat on the floor so he could watch which ment we all got a lovely view of his arse everytime he went to sit down again :wink:
We didn't really learn more than we already knew, but it was nice to see how well the cast got on with each other, even if Tamsin and Steve took the piss out of Julian, it was all done in good fun :)

Gasp
!.....oh, to have witnessed that firsthand!

Re. the hair and apparent nerves.........Poor baby - I wish I could reassure him in some way! I think he's beautiful (in every sense of the word!) no matter what his hair looks like.

You'll be glad to know he still looked as lovely as ever brown hair included. I think he'd look better if he left the beanie off that hat really doesn't do anything for him :?

Aww poor Julian (about being nervous). Do you think there will be anywhere you can find a picture of his brown hair? Or will we have to wait for Miss Marple (or if he does something else). I'm dying to see what it looks like.

:wink: When he gets going, he's hilarious! Even though he seemed nervous, it was about three times that he came back with witty remarks, one of which got a round of applause...I can't remember his exact words on that one (maybe someone else can fill you in) but Tamsin and Steve were taking the mickey out of him and he climbed straight back up that ladder!

Aw and when they were talking about him kissing a woman when they've just been sick, he said "Thanks for that. I'd just like to say hi to my current girlfriend..." and waved.
