About the Author
Green Wing was created by the same team as the sketch show Smack the Pony. Although set in East Hampton Hospital Trust (and actually filmed at two real hospitals), there are few medical storylines; most of the action being generated by the personal lives and foibles of the characters.The episodes were unusually long for a British comedy series (sixty minutes rather than the usual thirty), and written by a team of writers who compete to supply the winning dialogue and storylines.
