Stephanie Cole, Benedict Cumberbatch & Roger Allam star in the first series of the hit sitcom about the tiny charter airline for whom no job is too small, but many, many jobs are too difficult. By John Finnemore (The News Quiz, 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...
The six episodes in this series see the team hunting polar bears in Qikiqtarjuaq; looking for whisky in Paris; fixing tail-lights in Newcastle; playing 'yellow car' in Ottery St Mary; chasing stardom in Rotterdam; and facing the closure of the airline in St. Petersburg.
With special series guests Timothy West, Anthony Head (Buffy) & Mark Williams (The Fast Show).
