Most customers will recognise the bus by its colour, so I think from that perspective, green would work well.

Definitely needs to be more of a link between Angel and X21 though.

I've made my views clear on interworking branded services so that buses are purposefully appearing off route; whilst I understand why it is done, I still don't think it should be as it causes unnecessary customer confusion.
If the buses are the same colour and of a similar livery design as they are during the day on a night, customer confusion would be reduced. I feel this should be a target for Go North East and other bus operators in general.
