In this, the finale of the whole series, we discover that for MJN Air, whether it's choosing an ice-cream flavour, putting a princess in a van or remembering your grandmother's name, no job is too small, but, many, many jobs are too difficult.

Welcome to Hell—where nobody can ever quite catch the barman's eye. In this collection, which contains all seven series of Old Harry's Game, get ready for some wicked one-liners and scorching satire. Satan is fed up after a millennia in charge of Hell, especially given the prospect of an eternity still running the damned place. Although he does enjoy playing pranks on the world of the living and devising wry torments for the souls in his keeping, he often wistfully recalls his past as an archangel.

The complete ninth series of BBC Radio 4's award-winning sketch show. John Finnemore returns with his multi-award-winning sketch show, but this series is very different to the previous eight. There are still sketches and songs, and it's still written and performed by him and his usual fantastic ensemble cast - but with no live studio audience, John has taken the opportunity to try something new.

We were fighting on the wrong side of a war we couldn't win. And that was the good news. The Ruhar hit us on Columbus Day. There we were, innocently drifting along the cosmos on our little blue marble, like the native Americans in 1492. Over the horizon come ships of a technologically advanced, aggressive culture, and BAM! There go the good old days, when humans only got killed by each other. So, Columbus Day. It fits. When the morning sky twinkled again, this time with Kristang starships jumping in to hammer the Ruhar, we thought we were saved.

From her youthful days as a vicious nerd to her tour of duty on Saturday Night Live. Tina Fey reveals all, and proves what we've always suspected: You're no one until someone calls you bossy.

Bert Kreischer doesn't know how to say "no." If he did, he wouldn't have gotten himself mixed up with a group of Russian mobsters on a class trip to Moscow, earning him his nickname: "The Machine." He wouldn't have wrestled with a bear or swum with sharks on national television. He wouldn't have (possibly) smoked PCP with a star of Saturday Night Live. And he wouldn't have been named the Number One Partier in the Nation by Rolling Stone, inspired the movie National Lampoon's Van Wilder, or performed standup to sellout crowds across the country.

Subtly Funny Musings on Life Experiences
- By FanB14 on 09-03-12
By: David Sedaris
Publisher's summary
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....
Critic reviews
"Unexpectedly brilliant." - (Time Out)
"An inspired new sitcom." - (The Observer)
"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)
Featured Article: The Best Scripted Audio Comedies to Listen to Right Now

They can take risks and go in directions totally unique to audio, resulting in an entertainment experience wildly different from their television and film counterparts. You just never know what to expect with scripted audio.

At last, the definitive audiobook about perhaps the best cabin crew dramedy ever filmed: View from the Top starring Gwyneth Paltrow. In Ayoade on Top, Richard Ayoade, perhaps one of the most 'insubstantial' people of our age, takes us on a journey from Peckham to Paris by way of Nevada and other places we don't care about. It's a journey deep within, in a way that's respectful and non-invasive; a journey for which we will all pay a heavy price, even if you've waited for the smaller paperback edition. Ayoade argues for the canonisation of this brutal masterpiece.

The very strange but nevertheless true story of the dark underbelly of a 1960s hippie utopia. Laurel Canyon in the 1960s and early 1970s was a magical place where a dizzying array of musical artists congregated to create much of the music that provided the soundtrack to those turbulent times. But there was a dark side to that scene as well. Many didn't make it out alive, and many of those deaths remain shrouded in mystery to this day.

Center of the YOUniverse is an out-of-this-world spectacle starring Tituss Burgess and Jane Krakowski with music, laughter, and (probably) the salvation of humanity from its self-inflicted doom. Unaware of just how brightly the other one shines, Tituss and Jane will attempt the impossible: a double-booking. In a unique blend of song and storytelling, they’ll stop at nothing to upstage each other and steal the spotlight…until they realize the true purpose of being ridiculously attractive and having immeasureble talent: to unite and heal the world.

The First Entry in A Brilliant Series!
You will love this series, period. Funny throughout, touching at moments, never boring. Cumberbatch is so damn funny, the voice of Britain plays copilot perfectly, the Napshappys are the family who cover both ends of the spectrum. just listen to the sample if you're on the fence, and don't forget to get the specials asking without the 4 series!

Laugh-Out-Loud Hilarious!
What great fun to listen to this British radio show about the trials and tribulations of a very small airline (only one plane in the fleet!). Each of the four characters has a distinct personality and the listener can readily become hooked on the program. John Finnemore is a great comedy writer and the entire cast sound like they are thoroughly enjoying themselves! I'm ready to listen to the rest of this series. Over and out!

Laughs x 1000000. Golden!
I absolutely love this show. I can't even remember how many times I've played all the episodes and it keeps been hilarious. If you want to keep listening to stuff like this you can try The John Finnermore Show and Welcome to Our Village, Please Invade Carefully. You won't regret it.

You will listen over, and over, and over again.
What did you love best about Cabin Pressure?
Witty writing, incredible acting and great characters. I love everything about Cabin Pressure -- except that there are not more episodes.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Cabin Pressure?
Arthur's catering service to Abu Dhabi.
Which character – as performed by the narrators – was your favorite?
Arthur. His irrepresible cheeriness cannot be defeated by anything. In second place, by a hair, is Captain Crieff, whose inability to speak coherently to unruly passengers, famous movie stars, his boss -- okay, just about everyone! -- makes for great listening.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
The worst airdot you love to fly.

WAY TOO FUNNY!
Listening to Cabin Pressure while driving, I found myself laughing so hard that I'm sure people driving near me thought I had gone mad. Well, I had...I went mad with laughter at this well-written, well-acted and hilarious show that spoofs private airline travel. I'm working my way through the whole series and hope this troupe continues to record new episodes forever. Yes, it's that entertaining!
