About this product

Product Information

Every episode of the hit BBC Radio 4 airline sitcom is collected together in this special box set, including the Christmas special final episode, and several bonus features. Cabin Pressure is set in the wing and a prayer world of a tiny, one-plane charter airline, staffed by two pilots - one on his way down, and one who was never up to start with. Whether flying a cat to Abu Dhabi, dealing with a nervous bassoonist, hunting for a cleverly-hidden lemon or attempting to celebrate Christmas in seven minutes, no job is too small, but many, many jobs are too difficult. Carolyn Knapp-Shappey, MJN Air's formidable boss, has employed two of the very cheapest pilots money can buy: Captain Martin Crieff, who's always wanted to fly and won't let a little thing like lack of ability stop him, and First Officer Douglas Richardson, smooth-voiced old sky-god and eternal schemer. Passenger service is provided by the relentlessly cheery Arthur. Written by John Finnemore, Cabin Pressure stars Stephanie Cole as Carolyn, Benedict Cumberbatch as Martin, Roger Allam as Douglas, and John Finnemore as Arthur. 'The more I listen to John Finnemore's Cabin Pressure, the more I think what a stonking masterpiece it is. Perfect in every department.' - Philip Pullman

  • "Brilliant"

    These CDs contain all of the Cabin Pressure episodes made along with a booklet which gives insight into John Finnamore's creative mind....."wow!"....and an unexpected game of "the Travelling Lemon". Well worth buying them so we don't have to wait for the BBC to put the individual episodes on iplayer. Very good to listen to if you are feeling a little bit fed up - Arthur (John Finnamore) will always cheer you up with his boundless optimism and liberal use of the description "Brilliant", and Roger Allum's performance as First Officer Douglas Richardson truly is "Stephen Fry's favourite Uncle" Just "Brilliant".

  • Dangerous when driving

    One of the funniest things that was ever on the radio. If I was in the car, used to have to stop till it was finished in case I crashed due to laughing so much. The way the imbecility gradually builds up... wonderful.
