BBC Sherlock Fan Forum - Serving Sherlockians since February 2012 / Cabin Pressure Poll- main course selection

**Posted by Davina** July 20, 2012 10:04 pm

Having had boundless success with the last poll I now have the, slightly dubious, pleasure of shoving this one in your general direction. You can't say you aren't spoilt for choice! Oh! Does that mean you are spoilt for choice? I don't know...I think I've just confused myself. Anyway, here goes...I'm on my way with the trolley...

BRILLIANT!
But hey, what about the Fisherman's Pie?
Can't decide. Maybe Surprising Rice and for dessert the Soggy Brown Thing (hello again to the birthday-cake!??)....
I think I'll have the Admiral's Pie. I like my meal well-done and I'm not a fussy eater.

Although... I still love and never will forget - the "inner strudel-fight":

DOUGLAS: Well, you can take strudel if you like.
MARTIN: Yes, I’ll take strudel.
DOUGLAS: Fine.
MARTIN: No, hang on, this is how you diddled me with the female Air Traffic Controllers.
ARTHUR: Crikey!
MARTIN: You made me pick the bad bet. You want me to pick strudel. I want cheesecake.
DOUGLAS: Fine. It’s yours.
MARTIN: Hang on! That was too easy! You knew I’d work that out! I want strudel.
DOUGLAS: Are you sure?
MARTIN: Yes. No! Yes! So therefore ... no. No. Yes! Strudel?
DOUGLAS: Strudel? All right, then, you’re on.
MARTIN: Oh God! I’ve ended up with strudel! No-one likes strudel!

Oh, this seems to be neck and neck. Last time I supported Martin, but now I have to go for the surprising rice. I love surprises.

Mattlocked vote for your dessert on the previous poll. Just look a bit further down the list in this topic. Unless you voted last time, of course.

Grey and brown don't seem to be very popular. I would have gone for Orange Platter but I don't really like baked beans very much.

I think I'd go with the Surprising Rice. I'm sure Arthur's creativity would be... brilliant

Are you sure you haven't just confused brilliant with dangerous?

It is possible... you know I'm not a native speaker

Bump! Any more selections from our passengers today?

**Posted by Davina** August 1, 2012 5:05 pm

Bump! Bump!

Please take notice that the Captain has at this time lit the fasten your seat belts sign. This is due to turbulence.

Bump! Bump!

Please do refrain from getting up from your seat at this time.

Bump! Bump!

When the seat belt sign has been extinguished by the Captain you will be able to use the toilet facilities which are at the pointy end of the aircraft but until he does indeed switch off the fasten your seatbelt signs then please do refrain from doing so.

Bump! Bump!

Would any passengers like to vote for what they would like for their main course while we are in fact waiting for the Captain to switch off the fasten your seatbelt signs? Please turn to the first page of the onboard magazine-leaflet (topic) and there you will find your menu choices for today. Thank you for your attention during this announcement.

And WHEN the captain switches of the signs: Passenger derbyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!

Who will you bet on?

**Posted by Mattlocked** August 1, 2012 9:38 pm

I would think those who chose the Bowl of Grey would be the fastest, but as no-one did so far.........
