Is it possible that we might see a comeback of the beloved sitcom Green Wing? The news earlier this year was already exciting for fans, but it looks like it could get even better. The Channel 4 series first aired in 2004 and ran for two seasons before ending in 2007. It has since gained a reputation as one of the greatest British sitcoms of all time.
For those who may not be familiar, Green Wing centers around the eccentric staff at East Hampton Hospital, where strange and surreal events often take place. The show featured a talented cast including Tamsin Greig, Olivia Colman, Steve Mangan, and Mark Heap, who have all continued to see success after the series ended.
While the show did make a brief return as a six-part radio show on Amazon's Audible platform, there is now talk of bringing it back to television. As an added bonus, we may even get to see the return of Girls Aloud, as five lucky readers of Metro have the chance to win tickets to see them perform at Brighton Pride.
To enter the contest, all you have to do is fill out the form by July 28th. The event, Fabuloso In The Park, will take place on August 3rd and will feature other exciting performances from Billy Porter and Sophie Ellis-Bextor. This is definitely an opportunity not to be missed!
In a recent interview with Radio Times, creator and writer Victoria Pile hinted at a possible revival of Green Wing. She revealed that she was in talks with the cast and considering different options for bringing the show back. It's been over a decade since the series ended, and fans are thrilled at the possibility of seeing it return to our screens.
The original series ended on a cliffhanger, with the characters fleeing from the police in a camper van hanging over a cliff. This was a nod to the ending of the first season, which also left viewers on the edge of their seats with the characters in a similar predicament. Fans have been eagerly waiting to see how the story continues, and it looks like their patience may finally pay off.
Although bringing back Green Wing was not always in the plans, Pile admitted to reconsidering when asked about it. She also expressed that if a revival were to happen, it would likely be on Channel 4, where the show originally aired.
Earlier this year, the release of Green Wing: Resuscitated, a six-part podcast series, gave fans a taste of what a revival might look like. The audio series featured the original cast members reprising their roles, and it was met with high praise from listeners. Despite initial concerns about the show's visual comedy translating to an audio format, it received glowing reviews and ratings on Audible.
The audio series caught the attention of fans on Twitter, who were thrilled to have new Green Wing content after almost 20 years. Many praised the writing and performances, with some even reactivating their Audible accounts just to listen.
For those who may not have seen Green Wing before, now is the perfect time to catch up before the potential revival. Keep an eye out for any updates and make sure to tune in to Channel 4. And who knows, we may even get to see the show return to its former glory. After all, stranger things have happened.
