Cabin pressure

Again, being in Australia, I can't exactly source this via BBC unless I pay for each episode.

So the next best thing is youtube.

Mycroft’s popularity doesn’t surprise me at all. He is, after all, incredibly beautiful, clever and well-dressed. And beautiful. Did I mention that?

Re: Cabin pressure

If you Google it you will find a website where you can buy each of the 3 series. I guess you can probably do that from where you are. Then you can download them to your computer and listen to them millions of times ))

Re: Cabin pressure

Yeah I found that one thanks.
I am just 'sampling' it first, regardless of who is in it there are some things I just 'can't get into'.
We don't have radio plays over here (that I know of) except one very long running old one & it's not my cup of tea at all. So listening to these is something completely new to me really.

Re: Cabin pressure

Suggest you start with the very first episode of the first series. Like many situation comedies many of the jokes and funny situations revolve around carefully drawn personalities. This series is very well acted and the comic timing is perfect. It is written by John Finnemore who also plays Arthur. Hope you enjoy it. )

Re: Cabin pressure

There's one episode in series 3 in which the part of Martin Criieff is not played by Benedict because he was poorly!

Re: Cabin pressure

I have referenced John Finnemore's blog in the other stuff bit of this fan page. He writes Cabin Pressure.

Re: Cabin pressure

Yay! Cabin Pressure is back on BBC Radio 4extra! Monday about 9.30am and available on I-player (sorry folks outside UK but you can buy and download on-line). Benedict plays airline (with only one aircraft) pilot Martin Crieff (who also has his own 'man with a van' business on the side). This is series 2. Oh...I should mention that this is a comedy. The have been 3 series so far and the fourth will be recorded this year sometime. I'm really hoping to be able to get along to one of the recording sessions.

BRILLIANT! I am feeling very cheery about this!

Re: Cabin pressure

I love Cabin Pressure = ).
Poor Martin, I always want to hug him after an episode and say "everything will be okay!".

Re: Cabin pressure

Yes, poor Martin! Douglas pretty much ALWAYS gets the better of him! I love the character of Arthur too, he's just so...cheery! Have you seen the 'Yellow Car' rules John Finnemore has posted on YouTube? Made me laugh so much! You can also access it on his blog: John Finnemore Blog forget what did. This is also a very funny and very, very clever blog - catch his artwork if you haven't done so already.

Re: Cabin pressure

Sounds interesting, I'll watch it tomorrow = ).
I start reading John's blog, it's hilarious ! I love his entry about the book how to cook courgettes xD. Oh, and not to forget how many otters someone can imagine, a true classic that one : ) and his artwork is really great too.
And yes, how can someone not love Arthur ? He's always completely happy !

Re: Cabin pressure

I've listened to some episodes of Cabin Pressure in YouTube. Really hilarious. And a quite good way of improving my English listening...
I adore Arthur, but Martin is just so... well, it's Martin. He has that voice, good Lord...

Re: Cabin pressure

I've re-listened to Abu Dhabi. Love this bit:


MARTIN Is that understood?
DOUGLAS Yes.
MARTIN Yes what?
DOUGLAS Yes, it is.
MARTIN Yes, it is what?
DOUGLAS Yes, it is understood.
MARTIN Yes, it is understood, what?
DOUGLAS Yes, it is understood, please.
MARTIN I'm waiting.
DOUGLAS Martin, you're not seriously asking me to call you Sir?
MARTIN Yes, I am. Why is that so hard to believe?
DOUGLAS Well, to select just one reason from the fifteen or sixteen that present themselves, I'm old enough to be your father.
MARTIN Not unless you started very young.
DOUGLAS I did.
