About this listen
Anyone looking to let off some steam is bound to find something to love in Cabin Pressure. The combination of snappy repartee and brilliant voice-acting makes this a side-achingly funny experience from start to finish.
Stephanie Cole ("Doc Martin"), Benedict Cumberbatch and Roger Allam ("The Thick Of It") star in the complete first series of the hit sitcom about the pilots of a tiny charter airline for whom no job is too small, but many, many jobs are too difficult. Written by John Finnemore, writer for The News Quiz, and That Mitchell & Webb Sound.
Run by the forbidding divorcée Carolyn Knapp-Shappey (an unfortunate marriage, namewise, but in Carolyn's opinion, marginally better than Carolyn Shappey-Knapp), her two pilots are the smooth, experienced and almost-certainly-fired-by-a-big-airline-for-all-round naughtiness Douglas, and struggling almost-competent pilot and sweaty man Martin. All-round help is provided by Carolyn's near-idiot son, Arthur....

Up and away its fun
I wanted a new comedy, I like aviation & browsing through the library this one popped up. Stephanie Cole is a firm favourite so I tried the sample …. The characters are perfect and there is enough aviation to give authenticity without crashing the comedy. The timing is spot on, anticipation of the laugh it brings perfect. Very hard to resist playing the next episode so I didnt try. I’ve downloded the whole series now, so should you.

5stars! Where has the MJN crew been all my life!? Such a y, hilarious show. I must look like a complete mad person walking along laughing myself silly at this AND to top it off it has Benedict Cumberbatch's sexy voice as well. What more could you want!

The setting
I loved the characters and especially Arthur. And also the name of the plane And the humorously funny sarcastic jokes Douglas makes.
