GHAAAA Cabin Pressure Gdansk
Sorry for the utilitarian fade profile; it was faded out (intentially) long before that on the night by the main Sound Engineer doing the live mix.

Mm, I know. From the beginning of series 2 onwards, it's actually pretty consistent. 16 seats, two engines. Before that... not so much. #cabinpressure

I adored his "Ok - let's quiz!" in Starter For Ten

I know! Immaculate, isn't it? #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
Yes, me too. But also like an eleven year old, he burns it all off running round the airfield like a lunatic. #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
... but I still didn't know about strudel, did I? #CabinPressure https://t.co/quI6ZSMydz

I mainly do, yes. #cabinpressure

There's the "hale and hearty" hendiadys from Trial By Jury...? https://t.co/quI6ZSMydz
— David Tyler (@DavidTylerPozz) July 12, 2020
Thank you! It's fun listening back to hear where the joints are hidden... #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
Well, exactly. Your Arthur design is canon in my head now! #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
I certainly laugh at the performances! #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
Yes, she's especially quote-y in this one, isn't she? Ring out wild bells, too, and I think another one somewhere. #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
Oh, excellent! No, I haven't, but I did ask people who have. I needed her to have something she could tootle, and within those bounds, more than one musician suggested she was probably a bassoonist. (Also, funny word.) #cabinpressure

There is nothing miniature about the way Arthur plays Crazy Golf. But there are many things crazy. #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
Ok, that's it for another week! See you next time for Ipswich, which is one of my favourites. As ever, buying-me-a-coffee opportunities await you at https://t.co/wytGVjDaEq , but also as ever, no need to unless you particularly fancy it. #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
Another sound effect punchline, I notice. I do like those. #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
People ask why she would have the bassoon out of its case. Because, Carolyn has explicitly told her that she should tootle it in case of emergency. And Madame S-B is always prepared for emergencies... #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
Love Roger's ramping up here.... #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
Ah, and at least Douglas throws Martin a bone once he hears the horrible truth. #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
And here we have the introduction of the new engine for the show, Martin's salary to slowly replace the Captain / FO thing. #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
Wow, forgotten how Ben can do things like three "so"'s in a row, all different, all building the story... #CabinPressure
— David Tyler (@DavidTylerPozz) July 12, 2020
;God works in mysterious ways in order to do wonderful things for Douglas Richardson' is... as well as the thing last week, Douglas' motto. #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
I think I vaguely thought of Arthur as quite a big guy at this point. There's the cheesecake scoffing, the quiches in Ipswich, the 'baggy uniform' in Fitton. But then people started drawing him, and never made him big, so I dropped it. #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
And he is VERY fragile about his non-captaincy. For all of his mountain of tiny cheeses. #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
I try to make every time Douglas is properly vicious to Martin only happen after Martin's gone too far with him. Here, and in Qikiqtarjuaq, for instance. #cabinpressure

"How did you make there be a thunderstorm?" #CabinPressure

Matt Green diligently playing an entire rest-of-a-chamber-orchestra in the background there. #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
This episode is sillier than I remember. I like it. #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
'Cunning' Arthur is back. As I said last week, he is very fun to play. #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
This is peak Martin. #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
Well I know that now..... https://t.co/M23zejoQwb

This Cheesecake / Strudel bet is, of course, a homage to Guys and Dolls. #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
Yes, I so loved doing the strudel/cheesecake bits and no, I didn't get the G & D reference till years later when son played Nathan Detroit in school production. Sigh. #CabinPressure
— David Tyler (@DavidTylerPozz) July 12, 2020
Goofy is Arthur's one area of expertise, for some reason. Well, that and Crazy Golf. #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
Britta Gartner plays Madame Szszyko-Bohusz, by the way, and she's wonderful. Especially her double act with Carolyn. #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
I'm not aware that Passenger Derby has ever really been played by cabin crew. But I wouldn't be amazed... #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
This monologue was a lot of fun to do... #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
... and hooray for @mattgreencomedy who plays all and any Dutch ATCs to perfection
— David Tyler (@DavidTylerPozz) July 12, 2020
... but to be fair , shortly followed by "Tiny transparent hand

It is possible to land with the brakes on, by the way. Very hard on the tires. #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
I'm aware this is not the most scintillating commentary, but... Benedict and Roger do this cross-talk perfectly. #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
Hooray, Simon Greenall, another of a long line of premium finely-accented ATCs... #CabinPressure
— David Tyler (@DavidTylerPozz) July 12, 2020
Stephanie is just superb at this. #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
By the way who knew the word "tubist"? Not me... up to then #CabinPressure
— David Tyler (@DavidTylerPozz) July 12, 2020
I wonder if Douglas still leases Arthur his car... #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
... eventually... after a few quite un-Steph-like swearwords in rehearsal.... #CabinPressure https://t.co/EuCqatfSVM
— David Tyler (@DavidTylerPozz) July 12, 2020
The first of several appallingly unpronounceable things I gave poor Stephanie to say - all of which she of course, managed with ease. #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
(Let me quickly apologise to Poles right now that this tweet is the only time I'm going to put the correct accent in the word Gdańsk.) #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
And to make it worse, even going by second letters, "d" comes before "e" #cabinpressure https://t.co/fiKiudlANe
— David Tyler (@DavidTylerPozz) July 12, 2020
So, as I said last week, but in the most confusing way possible, we put episode H(Helsinki) out before episode G(Gdansk) because we thought it was the best intro to the cast for new listeners. #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
Here we go with episode Gdansk - yes, really this time, I've checked twice - of Cabin Pressure, live on Radio 4 now, and being tweeted about by me on this thread and @DavidTylerPozz in some foul lair of his own. #cabinpressure
— John Finnemore (@JohnFinnemore) July 12, 2020
Just a little musical shout-out to everyone waiting for tonight's tweet-along... #cabinpressure pic.twitter.com/u5PT0Y5j8U

Hurrah!
— David Tyler (@DavidTylerPozz) July 12, 2020
In tonight's episode of Cabin Pressure, Carolyn solves the mysterious Case Of The Poisoned Cashews, and MJN fly a paranoid bassoonist to Gdansk...
