Just re-listening to Cabin Pressure with 10 yr old DS, who has got really into it, and whenever the theme starts comes up and says "the lemon is in play"!

I'm feeling a bit shit today so was wondering what everyone's favourite episodes are, mine are .....

The one with the orchestra
St Petersburg.... in fact anyone where they get it over on Gordon
Berling Day
The one where they pick up Theresa of Lichtenstein for the first time

But they are all bloody great really aren't they??

I’d forgotten how much I love these. I’ve got them on iTunes/iBooks, from absolutely years ago. I love listening to them on flights and they also make excellent bedtime listening. I need to do a re-listen. I wish they’d make more but things move on.

Congratulations!

I'm just listening to Uskerty. I'd forgotten how funny it is.

I think Uskerty might be my favourite one. I use "only Father Christmas cares about what you want, I am telling you what you are going to do" all the time.

No more appropriate response than BRILLIANT!

Congratulations on the newest member of cabin crew @barneymcgroo

@EmmaH2022 as well as “surprising rice” don’t forget “fizzy yoghurt”

Does anyone else listen to Simon Mayo and Mark Kermode’s new film podcast? The other week they went off on a bit of a tangent talking about film star’s whose names sound like makes of car - “Tilda Swinton” is the only one I can remember off the top of my head - but it sounded like the perfect game for Douglas and Martin!

This thread has made me so happy. Especially the info about the repeat!

Fave? The finale is a joy of course, but I will always have a soft spot for Ottery St Mary, despite the fact that DH nearly ran us off the road for laughing when he first heard it.

Little tip, subscribe to Cabin Pressure on the BBC Sounds app and the episodes should stay available to listen to for 30 days after broadcast.

^ This.
I missed the boat in subscribing last time they were running it - ended up buying it all on Audible (but it was worth it).

I’ve subscribed but am still only able to access the first episode. Anyone got any idea what I’m doing wrong?

They'll only become available as they air, so you get one a week.

We drove through Ottery St Mary this summer, one DD piped up “Otters can swim” and the other followed it with “but I thought of putting an otter in the fridge!” We as parents were so proud!

Gassylady · 14/10/2022 18:17

Thanks realised I misread the post thought they were being repeated at one per day not one per week

ArticSaviour · 31/10/2022 18:09

I have just relistened to the whole thing. I do love it.

I would run away with Douglas in a heartbeat.

ILoveShula · 31/10/2022 19:25

I'd fly away with Martin.
