Cabin Pressure turns 10: the sitcom that broke records
It has won numerous awards, broken BBC Radio 4 records, launched the career of "a once in a generation writer" and spawned a devoted, international fan base with a particular enthusiasm for travelling lemons and otter storage dilemmas. It's the BBC Radio 4 sitcom Cabin Pressure - which for 10 years has chronicled life at a tiny (fictional) charter airline. But it is also a programme that very nearly didn't get made.

British Comedy Guide, 21st November 2017Marcus Brigstocke and Josie Lawrence to star in Radio 4 panel show
Marcus Brigstocke and Josie Lawrence are set to star in Crash Course, a Radio 4 panel show that challenges guests to learn everything about a subject in 24 hours.
British Comedy Guide, 23rd March 2017Cabin Pressure is one of the best written, cast, acted and directed comedies on anywhere.
Although only radio can make us picture exactly the single old plane on which this little airline depends, only John Finnemore's pen plus the sublime talents of Stephanie Cole, Roger Allam, Anthony Head and Anna Crilly could, last Friday, raise a salutary barrier between the turbulent real world on either side of their glorious fiction. Produced and directed, brilliantly, by David Tyler for independents Pozzitive.
