The cover of the Green Wing Special DVD.

Green Wing: The Special is the final episode of the British sitcom Green Wing. It was broadcast on 4 January 2007 in Britain, but was shown in Australia and Belgium earlier, on 29 December 2006.

Synopsis

The final moments of the hospital team. Who will marry Caroline? What will happen to Alan and Joanna? What happened to Karen, who fell out of the window?

Plotlines

Template:Spoilers The episode starts at a funeral, where Guy, Caroline, Boyce, Martin and Sue are in attendence. Martin then performs a mime dance, which is extremely over the top, with the other characters watch in amazement at his stupidity. After the service, the characters leave, with Sue throwing confetti, until Boyce picks her up and carries her over his shoulder, while she still throws confetti. Martin is still miming, until Guy stops him. A discussion about hair is made, setting up to appear it is Mac's funeral, until we see a giant heart with a picture of Angela in being carried behind them. Guy, Martin and Caroline discuss why Mac was not there, with Guy going on about how selfish Mac is, when Caroline sees Mac in the distance. Martin runs over to try and reach him, while Caroline tries to do the same, until Guy stops her, pretending to be grieving about Angela. When Caroline looks back to where Mac was, he is no longer there, and Martin is looking around in amazement.

Caroline, Guy and Mac

Mac returns to work, after around a month of leave, which Caroline enquires about, being told it was "family issues". She then asks why he did not meet her at the station, and implies that she is engaged to Guy. Later in the cafeteria, when Mac turns up, Guy passionately kisses her, to try and make Mac jealous. he then becomes overly possessive of her, even dragging her away from the table when he wants to leave.

Mac and Guy are then drunk in the hospital bar, where Mac tells Guy he is going to die in a couple of weeks. Mac then makes guy promise he will not tell Caroline. However, he tells Martin, and when Martin is complaining to Guy that he doesn't care at all that Mac is dying, and about how selfish Guy is, Caroline walks in and over hears this. Martin continues to rage until Guy hits him.

Caroline confronts Mac while he is teaching little children, and he makes up a story about "Ginger" the hamster being unwell, which is why Caroline is upset. Caroline and Mac continue this story, until it gets ridiculous and informs mac that this isn't over.

Guy later decides to do the right thing, and tells Mac to propose to Caroline, because she loves him, and he loves her. The wedding goes ahead, and even though Guy trys to interrupt the wedding, Mac and Caroline get married, and the special ends with her floating away into the sky, holding a bunch of helium balloons.

Alan and Joanna

After getting off the cliff, Alan and Joanna are on the run. Soon, they walk into a store, and start eating whatever is available. The shopkeeper soon notices, and they run out the back fire exit, with Joanna popping back in, to return a shopping basket. Soon, they have to go to a garage, to get the stolen van looked out. While leaving, Joanna accidentally runs over the mechanic.

Next they go to a campervan site, where they pretend to be Candy and Merl, and Joanna flirts with a man who it soon turns out is gay and wants to have a walk alone with Alan. Next they try to rob a cornershop, but Alan starts choking, and the shopkeeper helps him. The shopkeeper hands over cash, which Alan then uses to pay her for the items they are stealing. Joanna told him to sit on her to make sure she doesnt make any false moves, and in sitting on her, Alan accidentally suffocates her.

They soon stop outside a cattle farm, where Alan gets mad at the cows because he stood in their poo, so he gets the bucket they have been using as a toliet and throws it over them. Later, they are stopped by a policeman on suspiscion of stealing a campervan. Joanna gets her peanut-butter sandwich, and smears it in his face. Alan and Joanna have a raging discussion about the minute odds of the policeman having an allergy and going into a fit, while in the background, this is exactly happening.

Soon, they are out of everything, and Alan changes the engine to run on alcohol and fermented poo. The van then blows up behind them. They soon reach the beach and Joanna gives Alan three options: Give themselves up, swim The Channel to Spain, or committ sucide. Alan chooses the 3rd option, and they are last seen walking naked into the sea, with the sunset on the horizon.

Sue White

Sue is speaking to the CEO in her office, in the squirrel outfit seen earlier in the series. He asks her to fill in temporarily as the head of HR, while they try to find a permanent replacement. She then complains that she deserves the full time job, and the CEO starts to say they are looking for "Someone a little less..." while Sue interrupts and suggests attractive. He implies that she is too rude. He leaves, and she answers the phone, speaks in high squeaks, like a squirrel, and slams the phone down. She calls after the CEO, shouting, "What was wrong with that?!!

She also calls Mac into her office, sings to him, gives him a gun, places the barrel in her mouth, and tells Mac to shoot. Mac then suggests that instead of killing herself, she should find someone who loves her back. She agrees, Mac leaves, and she gets out the phonebook, and repeats to herself, "Someone who loves me back". At the wedding, she is seen with her new boyfriend, but stops him mid-sentence, claiming he is boring Mac and Caroline.

Boyce

Dr. Stathams replacement enters the classroom for the first time, and Boyce starts to make fun of him. Suddenly, the replacement shouts at him violently, saying that he will not be interrupted and that they will not be playing Boyces game. Boyce slowly nods his head, and spends the rest of the lesson sitting with a sad expression on his face. Later, the episode goes back to the classroom, obviously late at night, and Boyce is still there. He picks up Stathams pointer, smells it, and hits his face with it repeatedly, in a manner that was similiar to Statham

Later in the bar, Boyce tried to get Guy by doing the right thing, by offering champagne (what Guy wants to do) and ale (what Guy should do). Repeatedly he tries to go to the ale, but ends up going to the champagne. The one time he gets really close, Martin interrupts, and Guy throws the ale onto Martin.

The Admin Girls

Karen walks in, dressed smartly, and sits down, she is now more fiesty. When the girls realise there is no Joanna to shout at them, they start going wild. They start off by doing mild things, such as swapping desks, tipping up litter, lounging on their desks. They then start interviewing people, using a "trousers-down" selection method.

Soon, they start becoming more wild, slowly turning into a "Lord of the Flies" situation. They fight over the design of a totem pole, and soon there are arguments and Harriet decides to become the new Joanna. Martin gets captured by Rachel, Kim and Karen, chanting "Kill the doctor". Martin calls for his mummy, when Harriet comes out and proclaims she is the new mummy in town, and returns to the office"

Martin Dear

Martin becomes dramatically upset at the fact of Mac dying, and starts sobbing to Mac, ending with "I heart you Mac", with Mac replying "I heart you too". He also gets kidnapped by the admin girls, but somehow manages to escape. Martin also interrupts the wedding after Guy coughs as Mac's first name is read out by the vicar. He asks if the priest can rewind a bit.
