“Christopher Green’s work is funny & intelligent” Björn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson from Abba
“I have followed Christopher Green's work as performer, writer of radio drama and deviser of public events for some years now, and never fail to be inspired by its quality. He deploys sharp intelligence and humour with a tight attention to detail, and an unusually broad cultural frame of reference which gives an edge to even the more apparently frivolous of his entertainments. His originality has always been fearless, even startling, but is increasingly warmed by a mature humanity.“ Libby Purves, Writer and Broadcaster and The Times Chief Theatre Critic
“Christopher Green’s Tina C is one of the great comic creations of the age. A genuinely fine country singer, but with a twist of satire and insight which is rare and highly to be prized.” Stephen Fry
“Working on a script by Christopher Green is as good as it gets. His writing is funny, insightful and has a delicacy that puts it in a class of it's own. His work is rather like the man himself, very funny and really rather beautiful “ Caroline Quentin
“I really enjoy watching Christopher Green. He is a huge talent- clever, funny and devastatingly relevant.” Admiral Lord West of Spithead, UK Security Minister and former First Sea Lord.

Famous quotes containing the word quotations:
“Reading any collection of a man’s quotations is like eating the ingredients that go into a stew instead of cooking them together in the pot. You eat all the carrots, then all the potatoes, then the meat. You won’t go away hungry, but it’s not quite satisfying. Only a biography, or autobiography, gives you the hot meal.”
—Christopher Buckley, U.S. author. A review of three books of quotations from Newt Gingrich. “Newtie’s Greatest Hits,” The New York Times Book Review (March 12, 1995)
“A book that furnishes no quotations is, me judice, no book—it is a plaything.”
—Thomas Love Peacock (1785–1866)
