I am addicted to the show "Green Wing" on BBC. Anyone else watch this? I love BBCA. What TV I do watch BBCA takes up about 80% of that time.

Ohhhhhhhh yes! It's quality. I'm surprised you get it via the BBC, it was on Channel 4 when it was aired over here. I'm desperately waiting for the second series, following the, urm, cliff hanger in the first.

MAC : You're part of my team.
GUY : You're part of my anus.

CAROLINE : (to Angela) : Did you ever feel like you were walking around with a big neon sign that said 'Clueless Twat'?

It really shouldn't be funny...
 
Speaking of Sarah Alexander (Angela on 'Green Wing'), has anyone watched 'Coupling'. Not as good without Jeff, IMO.

Famous Jeff quote - "Results!" :cool:
 
I really liked the original Coupling too. It was very funny. I think it took a hit with the cast change as well. There's something about the english accent that makes fast banter even funnier to me.

- Guy smoking and never wearing a face mask during operations is priceless.

Joanna: "Am I to understand you gave me a spunk filled locket for my birthday?"

Brew...we haven't gotten to the season cliff hanger so don't spoil it!
 
I must admit that I am also somewhat addicted to Cash In The Attic and House Doctor. I must be getting old.
