Set in a small airline business, Cabin Pressure is a comedy about the wing and a prayer world of a tiny, one-plane charter airline staffed by two pilots - one on his way down, and one who was never up to start with. Whether they're flying squaddies to Hamburg, metal sheets to Mozambique, transporting lads on a stag night or shifting a panther for the odd oil sheik, no job is too small - but many, many jobs are too difficult! Our Review: A strong premise, successfully turned into a very good series thanks to some well-defined characters and performances. John Finnemore is great at weaving interesting stories - something missing from so many of the other recent radio sitcoms. |
