Default Cabin Pressure

It's this incredibly funny radio comedy about a charter air service.

Does anyone watch it?

It's written by John Finnemore, who also acts in it along with Benedict Cumberbatch, Stephanie Cole, and Roger Allam.

They're very witty and it's a sort of clever funny, rather than stupid funny.
Anyways, definitely listen to them. You can download them here or pay for them on itunes.

Cabin Pressure is absolutely brilliant! I can't wait for series 4.

John Finnemore's Souvenir Programme is also very much worth a listen.

If Benedict Cumberbatch would stop being such a desirable actor so he'd have time to do this we'd have series 4 sooner!

I enjoy Souvenir Programme, but it's a different kind of humor. I think it's because the sketches are. . . well, sketches, and therefore shorter, they don't have time for the plot development that I love in Cabin Pressure.
But yeah, I still love Souvenir Programme. c:

wow a whole thread about Cabin Pressure
I love it all the episodes are so brilliant, and the characters are also brilliant and the actors who voice it are brilliant, and Martin speaking with a French accent is brilliant, and that Spanish guy from Johannesburg is brilliant and and

am I sounding to much like Arthur?

when is series 4

John Finnemore posted on his blog that he's trying to get the actors together before the end of the year. Unfortunately, Benedict is so popular right now that he's finding it difficult to schedule it; but like I said he's hoping by the end of the year.

People who went to the recordings said that season 3 looks like it will be great!
And the Lemons and Landmarks book was given to John Finnemore sQuEE

I listened to all episodes once again recently and the story lines seem to become better and better along the way.

yes, John looked soooo happy with the book

Can't wait for the next episode. From what I read that one is even better (if that is even possible)

I read some non spoilery reviews about the recordings.
I really hope he'll continue making another series. Preferably with the same cast of course.
