The Green Wing Special DVD delivers the final ever Green Wing episode. In theory we find out whether Mac is really dying and if Caroline gets to marry him, or ends up marrying Guy. The same wacky cast of characters is back for the special episode, drawn together to attend a funeral. Sue White is still pursuing Mac, Guy is still desperately in love with Caroline, and Guy is ever more mysterious. Will we ever find out his real name? Boyce misses his mentor, but Statham and Joanna have problems of their own and there's surprises in store for the rest of the HR department.
In practice the finale is very disappointing, with no real answers, and doesn't make up for the fact that the series is no more.
Advantages: Fantastic comedy, yet again Disadvantages: We never find out Mac's first name
Green wing has to be one of my top must-see comedies. It borrows many of the cast from other British comedies such as Black Books and Smack the Pony, both excellent comedies in their own right. At a guess i would say that the Green Wing Special was an episode for the fans longing for a third series. It flows wonderfully from the last episode of series two. We get to follow Alan Statham and Joanna Clore's journey on the run from the law. This is hilarious. ... ...a few broken hearts. All parts of this story were executed with superb detail and the funniest thing that was on TV Christmas 2006. Although this was never meant to be another series, there are still plots unsolved, and we never find out Mac's first name!! Something which has been bugging me from day 1! I would definately reccommend buying this DVD as a round-off for series two, money well spent. ...

DVD Description
Proving that there's more to hospitals than just disinfectant and dysentery, GREEN WING takes an altogether unconventional view of the health service. Produced by the team who brought you SMACK THE PONY, the series is more concerned with the antics of its dysfunctional characters than with actual medical issues, and plays out like a surreal soap opera (think an NHS version of SCRUBS, but with more emphasis on the comedy element). This TV special marks the end of the show's very successful run, in which it won critical acclaim and a BAFTA award.
