Then I went onto e.bay and found stickpins and fridge magnets for Cabin Pressure. (You can even buy real, authentic cabin pressure instruments from real aircraft on there!) I am sooooo tempted to buy at least one, even though they, ironically, come all the way from the USA. E.bay also has some t-shirts with yellow cars on them.

Or you could make something out of this fabric:

Yellow Car! Yellow Car!

Crap! You were quicker than me.

You can have the next one. I'm going to bed now.

Any news on series 4? I have been so disconnected from the internet lately that I don't know if there's any news about it

Davina · October 7, 2012 11:45 am

No news yet. I'm 'stalking' John Finnemore (in the nicest possible way you understand) and will post immediately I hear anything. You might enjoy his 'Souvenir Programme' on BBC Radio 4 extra (& I-player). It has me ISPs mild hysterics the other day. It is soooooo funny!

Charm available at Macy's.

Go ahead. Say it. Yellow car!
Want one! Now I'm wondering how many Sherlock/Cabin Pressure/BC's-work-in-general related charms I could find.

I should have mentioned for the non-Americans that Macy's is a giant department store chain. I checked their website, and couldn't find this necklace/charm, so I guess you have to go to the store to get one. And say "yellow car" when you see it.

But I did find two charms loosely connected to Sherlock. Maybe I'll put them on one of those threads.

The lemon is in play:

Davina · October 8, 2012 1:30 pm

Miffed fans and a put out Mr. Finnemore as a Radio 4 announcer (doofus!) refers to the programme as Cabin Fever. I've heard that Carolyn is unhappy about it too! Be scared Radio 4 announcer. Be very scared!

Warning: This is funny only for German speaking persons. Couldn't resist to have FB translate a little dialogue:

DOUGLAS: Because it was a secret, Arthur, and you are, without a shadow of a doubt, the worst liar in the world.
ARTHUR: I’m not!
DOUGLAS: All right, answer this question with a lie: what’s your name?
ARTHUR: Arth...nuld Man, uh, Cat...su...man.
DOUGLAS: Arthnuld Manacatsuman?
ARTHUR: Yeah.
DOUGLAS: That’s an unusual name. Tell me, is it made up?
ARTHUR: Yes, it is. Oh!

DOUGLAS: Weil es ein Geheimnis war, Arthur und Sie sind, ohne einen Schatten
des Zweifels, der schlimmsten Lügner der Welt.
ARTHUR: Ich bin nicht!
DOUGLAS: alles in Ordnung, beantworten Sie diese Frage mit einer Lüge: Was ist Ihr Name?
ARTHUR: Arth... Nuld Mann, äh, Cat...su... Man.
DOUGLAS: Arthnuld Manacatsuman?
ARTHUR: Ja.
DOUGLAS: Das ist ein ungewöhnlicher Name. Sag mir, er besteht?
ARTHUR: Ja, es ist. Oh! (Übersetzt von Bing)

Oh yes, translation programs are fun, aren't they??

Oh ja, Übersetzungsprogramme Spaß sind, sind sie nicht? (übersetzt von Babelfish)

And as I had problems to understand Davina's post I put it into Babelfish, too.
Now I understand even less:

Miffed Fans und ein von Mr. Finnemore als Radio 4 Ansager (doofus!) legte bezieht sich auf das Programm als Cabin Fever. Ich habe gehört, dass Carolyn unglücklich darüber ist! Angst Radio 4 Ansagerin werden. Seien Sie sehr Angst

What don't you understand?? Cabin Pressure fans being cross? John Finnemore being cross (a bit)? The announcer (yes it was a lady) being a doofus (good old Moriarty)? Or Carolyn being very, very scary? And that the announcer should be very scared. (Yes, I know Carolyn is a fictitious character! Lol)
Because it is called Cabin Pressure and NOT Cabin Fever!

Sorry, I didn't understand it either. But now I've got it. Must be my age. The little grey cells working slower and slower.

Mattlocked · October 8, 2012 4:29 pm

I understand, I understand! For some sentences people post it's the "whole thing" or the context which I don't get sometimes.
But then I look up some words and the rest............. is.............. DEDUCTION.

No problem at all, thank you Davina!

Davina · October 8, 2012 8:15 pm

You are welcome.

I know it's old hat to some of you, but I have just heard the Ottery episode for the first time. Still laughing. And getting a lot of the jokes on the forum better, too.

Also, SPOILER ALERT, I'm sure you've all already had a good laugh at Big Martin thinking Little Martin is asking him out on a date in view of all the Sherlock/John misunderstandings. There are some other such things, which I can't think of right now, but I'm sure you've already covered them somewhere in this thread.

Mattlocked · October 9, 2012 6:30 am

The thing is, at least for me, I have to laugh even more when listening to the episodes again and again...
Reminds me to send more to my sister; managed to addict her finally. Well, maybe I should let her wait another week.........

veecee · October 9, 2012 9:11 pm

Planning to listen again while driving to another state over Thanksgiving (late November holiday).

Maybe there should be a separate thread for people newer to Cabin Pressure, like me.

SPOILER ALERT: I'm just to the point where they may have to sell Gertie, and I don't know how it turns out yet.

Mattlocked · October 9, 2012 9:13 pm

OH, that one made me really, really sad....

SusiGo · October 9, 2012 9:16 pm

Very dramatic episode. But isn't this the last one, St. Petersburg? So you should be quite advanced.

You could make up a thread like CP For Beginners.
