Green Wing Trivia Questions
1. What was the name of the female doctor who was just starting at the hospital in the first episode of series one?

From Quiz The Fabulously Strange Characters of "Green Wing"

Answer: Caroline Todd

Caroline's first day did not get off to a good start when she was late to work, having spent the night in her car as she couldn't gain access to her brother's house. Caroline was played by Tamsin Greig (born in 1967), who has also starred in "Black Books" (2000-2004).

2. The hospital in which series 1 is set is based in which fictional district?

From Quiz Inside the "Green Wing"

Answer: East Hampton

This is a purely fictional district in southern England, although I believed it to be real until I read up about "Green Wing" online!

3. In which type of building is "Green Wing" set?

From Quiz 'Green Wing'

Answer: Hospital

"Green Wing" is set in the fictional hospital of East Hampton. The programme was actually filmed in 2 real, working hospitals. Apparently they wanted to create a realistic atmosphere, so many of the extras are actually hospital staff and patients.

4. What was the name of the sexy male doctor who had blonde (or ginger, depending who you asked) hair, a secretive first name and rode a motor bike?

From Quiz The Fabulously Strange Characters of "Green Wing"

Answer: Dr. Macartney "Mac"

He was only known as Dr. Macartney, or Mac for short. He was a laid back person who liked to wind the other doctors up. Sadly, it was found out at the end of series two that he was going to die. Mac was played by Julian Rhind-Tutt who has had appearances in "Black Books" (2000-2004) and "Crooked House" (2008).

Caroline has to go into her first day at work having spent the night in her car. Not the best idea for a surgeon! She spends the following evening at Guy Secretan's flat.

6. In the first ever episode, which character has to spend the night in her car, having had housing problems?

From Quiz 'Green Wing'

Answer: Caroline Todd

Caroline Todd, played by Tamsin Grieg, has trouble getting into her brother's house, and so has to resort to the car. She has to spend the second night at the flat of Guy Secretan, the would-be lothario of the hospital, if only any girls found him as attractive as he finds himself!

7. This sleazy, curly haired doctor always had to be the best at everything. What character was this?

From Quiz The Fabulously Strange Characters of "Green Wing"

Answer: Dr. Guy Secretan

Guy was played by actor Stephen Mangan who has also been in "Episodes" (2011). Guy had a colourful time in "Green Wing" (2004-2006). He slept with his own mother (they didn't know they were mother and son at the time) and found out he had a half brother working at the same hospital with him.

8. When Angela moves in as Caroline's new lodger, it emerges that she plays what instrument to an almost professional standard?

Karen tries to come onto Martin, played by Karl Theobald, during the housewarming party at Caroline's, but he only has eyes for Caroline, who only has eyes for Mac!

11. What kind of yoghurt does Dr. Martin Dear persistently have stolen from the staff room?

From Quiz Inside the "Green Wing"

Martin, who has been trying to qualify as a 'proper doctor' for years can't decide how formal a note he needs to leave the cleaners, to try and keep his yoghurts in the fridge.

12. Which character was always being riled by one of the student doctors?

From Quiz The Fabulously Strange Characters of "Green Wing"

Answer: Dr. Alan Statham

Dr. Alan Statham was wound up by a particular student doctor all the time. However, by the end of the series it was clear that they actually liked and missed each other. They did also end up in bed together at one point and the student doctor also purchased Dr. Statham in a charity auction for £0.30! Statham was the secret lover of Joanna Clore, whom he ran away with after killing her dwarf cousin. Dr. Alan Statham was played by Mark Heap, who has since been in "Lark Rise to Candleford" (2008-2011) alongside Dawn French and Olivia Hallinan.

From Quiz Inside the "Green Wing"

From Quiz 'Green Wing'

Answer: Alan Statham

Head of HR, Joanna, and Consultant Radiologist, Alan, had a relationship throughout the series, but Joanna ended it when she thought she was pregnant (it turned out to be a false alarm!). She liked Lyndon, who works for the Information Technology (IT) department, but he showed no interest in her!

15. What was the name of the student doctor who was a major annoyance in the teaching doctor's life?

From Quiz The Fabulously Strange Characters of "Green Wing"

Answer: Boyce

Boyce was always winding Dr. Statham up. He took great pleasure in ruining the tutorials for the doctor and making a fool out of him. However, he did help Statham and Clore escape from the hospital when he was on the run from the law. Boyce was played by Oliver Chris, who also appeared in the first series of "The Office" (2001).

16. Which two characters find out at the end of the series that they are brothers?

From Quiz 'Green Wing'

Answer: Guy and Martin

Martin reads a letter of Guy's which alerts him to the fact that they share the same mother, head of Human Resources, Joanna Clore. Needless to say, Guy is none too pleased to know that he is related to Martin!

17. Karl Theobald played a character who was a bit weedy, but very sweet. He was also secretly in love with one of the female doctors and he wasn't a full doctor, as he kept failing his final exam. Who was this character?

From Quiz The Fabulously Strange Characters of "Green Wing"

Answer: Dr. Martin Dear

Martin was the half brother of Guy and the son of Joanna Clore. He was always picked on, but Caroline and Mac always stood up for him. Karl Theobald, who played Martin, has also been in "Primeval" (2008). He was born in Suffolk, England, in 1969.

18. How many people does Caroline passionately kiss at her house-warming party?

From Quiz Inside the "Green Wing"

Answer: 4 & four

She kisses Guy in the doorway, Sue White when she is leaving and Martin as he is leaving. She has his first amazing kiss with Mac after she's just been sick in the bathroom. I think the chemistry between the two actors, Tamsin Greig and Julian Rhind-Tutt is incredible.

19. Not including her forthcoming baby, how many children does Harriet from Human Resources have at the end of Series 1?

From Quiz 'Green Wing'

Answer: 4

Harriet has four boys, but finds out during the series that she is pregnant with her fifth child. Poor old Harriet has a hard time keeping track of the boys, and often leaves them somewhere she shouldn't!

20. This doctor was a little annoying as she seemed to be good at everything. She ended up moving abroad to find fame after a documentary crew was at the hospital. What was this character's name?

From Quiz The Fabulously Strange Characters of "Green Wing"

Answer: Dr. Angela Hunter

Angela Hunter moved in with Caroline. She could play the harp and always looked perfect, much to Caroline's dismay. She was played by Sarah Alexander, born in 1971 in London, England. Alexander was best known for her comedic talents in "Smack The Pony"(1999-2003).

21. Staff-liaison officer, Sue White, hails from which part of the United Kingdom?

From Quiz Inside the "Green Wing"

Answer: Scotland

Sue White is indeed a strange character. She also has a rather strange obsession with Dr. Macartney. But Mac is sensible and keeps his distance.

22. What colour are the knickers that Angela accuses Caroline of stealing?

From Quiz 'Green Wing'

Answer: White

Angela thinks that Caroline has let her washing stack up and so has had to resort to stealing a pair of her knickers, her "white, tanga briefs", to be precise. They end up having a fight which the boys enjoy, but which Mac eventually breaks up.

23. This character had a lot of children and became pregnant during the course of the series. She was very forgetful and always late for work. She worked in the admin office. Who was this character?

From Quiz The Fabulously Strange Characters of "Green Wing"

Answer: Harriet Schulenburg

Harriet actually ended up having an affair with the IT expert, Lyndon. Her marriage was going through a bad patch and her husband was already threatening to leave. All of the admin staff were a bit mad and she was no exception. Harriet would either have a child with her that she had forgotten to take to school or even have forgotten to put on her skirt before arriving to work (usually late). She was played by Olivia Colman, who has made appearances in "The Office" (2002) and also "That Mitchell and Webb Look" (2006-2008).

24. At the slave auction, how much does the junior-doctor, Boyce, end up paying for consultant radiologist, Dr. Alan Statham?

From Quiz Inside the "Green Wing"

Answer: 30p

Dr. Statham has dressed up as a Roman for the occasion, and seems very put out that the demand for him isn't higher. Boyce, however, is keen on making the most from his invested 50 pence, and the pair have a bit too much to drink.

25. What is Guy Secretan's middle name?

From Quiz 'Green Wing'

Answer: Valerie

As hard as it to believe, Guy has a girl's name as his middle name. Martin finds this amazing luck: "Roll on lunchtime, girls' names jokes a-go-go." Guy also admits that he was once a bridesmaid.

26. At the end of Series One, Guy, Mac and Martin are left hanging over the edge of a cliff. Which vehicle are they in?

From Quiz 'Green Wing'

Answer: Ambulance

Guy goes a bit crazy when he hears the news about Joanna being his mother, and so steals an ambulance and goes on a joyride. The series ends with the ambulance hanging perilously over a cliff edge, with viewers unsure who, if anyone, will survive!
