I admit it. I'm a little enamoured of Julian Rhind Tutt.
Now that I've gotten that admission out of the way -- does anyone know if there's going to be a series 2 of Green Wing?
Wesley: Feng Shui. Gunn: Right. What's that mean again? Wesley: That people will believe anything. Actually, in this place, Feng Shui will probably have enormous significance. I'll align my furniture the wrong way and suddenly catch fire or turn into a pudding.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I don't suppose anyone happens to know when Sky1 are repeating Wonderfalls ? I tried to tape on Tuesday, but discovered when I tried to watch it that I missed the second half. shakes fists at people who press buttons randomly on remote controls

I think there;ll be a second season - it was praised to the rafters here. Have you ever seen Hippies , the shortlived followup to Father Ted ? J R-T was great as the lead posh hippy. He does always strike me as an inexpensive knockoff of Paul Bettany, though.

But with girlier hair!
I can't explain why I like him so, but he was great on Green Wing. A fair amount of the show (about 1/3) had me FFing compulsively (redefining watch from the hall), but somehow the series finale managed to pull it together -- I barely skipped a thing.
Ending was very .. very ... well, literal in a way.
I need to get my hands on Hippies -- thanks!

I think Freddy Quimby should walk out of here a free hotel
Hippies had Simon Pegg and Sally Phillips too.
The British comedy scene is not unlike a line marriage.

I had a theory about Green Wing, that it's the first prog sitcom. Its cast was a supergroup of stars from other shows, it needlessly stretched episodes out, it had terrible indulgent longeurs.

Hell yeah on the longueurs. What's "prog," though?

Ask Hec? A music question? Are you insane? I'll just make some stuff up.
