Comedy: Cabin Pressure – #7 – S02 E01 – Helsinki – Roger Allam, Stephanie Cole, Benedict Cumberbatch, John Finnemore

Great cast

 

 

Cabin Pressure is set in the wing and prayer world of a tiny, one-plane airline, staffed by two pilots, one on his way down, and one who was never up to start with.

Carolyn Knapp-Shappey, MJN Air’s formidable boss, has employed two of the very cheapest pilot’s 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 cheerful Arthur, proud inventor of both Surprising Rice and his own hat.
