About this listen

Stephanie Cole (Doc Martin), Benedict Cumberbatch, and Roger Allam (The Thick of It) star in the complete second 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.

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-around naughtiness Douglas, and struggling, almost competent Martin. All-round help is provided by Carolyn's near-idiot son, Arthur.

Written by John Finnemore, writer for The News Quiz and That Mitchell & Webb Sound.

Critic reviews

"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)

Fab ensemble comedy, I've already listened five or six times. Well worth your credits or cash

Great mix of wit & silliness

The comedy is witty and clever, the acting is top quality, overall it's some of the best comedy BBC radio ever put out, would highly recommend. from the first series all the way to the finale it is a perfect audiobook I will always come back too, some of the episodes are often better than others as it goes but that might be from my own personal opinion, give it a try from the first one and I'm certain you'll be hooked in

unrivalled in storyline and comedy

I could listen to Cabin Pressure on repeat until the end of time (and have, this is my 10th time round at least). It is so well written, witty and makes you laugh every time, even when you know what jokes are coming next. In a word, it is brilliant!

The best, happiest making show ever!

Cabin Pressure is a delight. The cast fit together perfectly: Benedict Cumberbatch as the anxious, hapless, not-yet-failed captain; Roger Allam as the older, more talented and far more distinguished co-pilot; Stephanie Cole as the fearsome airline owner, who won't tolerate the foolish men messing it all up; and John Finnemore (the writer) as her bumbling son Arthur, the steward.

I could happily listen to them for hours; I have done, and they're hours full of laughter and camaraderie. Heartily recommended.

Full of delight and laughter
