Which Cabin Pressure episode is your favourite and why?

There are quite a few episodes I really love, but "Limerick" is the one I always come back to.  I love the set-up with just the four main characters alone on the plane, I love all the running jokes and how perfectly they come together in the end, and I love all the new things we learn about the characters in that episode.

From [livejournal.com profile] megan_moonlight: What are your favourite Cabin Pressure episodes?

I have to say starting out that whenever this was airing, my favorite episode was always the last one I'd heard.  Also, I definitely prefer the later seasons overall, where the characters are more of a family and Martin is the butt of fewer jokes (I feel an uncomfortable degree of kinship with Martin).

That said, I think my #1 favorite episode is "Limerick".  I love the simplicity of just having the four main characters bored on a flgiht, and the way all the different running jokes interweave is so fantastic.  I think it's basically perfect.

I also really love "Ipswich", "Ottery St Mary" and "Xinzhou".

Title: Tea For Four
Fandom: Cabin Pressure
Pairing/Characters: Martin Crieff, Mycroft Holmes, Sherlock Holmes, Excelsior Black
Summary: Martin has tea with his siblings.
Rating: PG
Length: Very short (365 words)
Disclaimer: These characters don't belong to me- only the silly idea!
Notes/Warnings: This little vignette shouldn't be taken too seriously, and yes- it's sort of AU. I just wanted Mycroft, Sherlock, Martin and Colonel Black to all be siblings and I was willing to ignore whatever I had to ignore in order to make that happen. I do imply that Martin was raised by other people, so it's still loosely canon at least. It's set early in the Cabin Pressure timeline. As is necessary with three shows that all have such very different tones, I had to pick one. I rounded up to Clone-typical behavior, so this is only PG (or G) rated as much as Clone is. Nobody dies, but respect for human life is not high.
Excerpt: "You might let us charter your firm to fly his… people… somewhere one day. To give your colleagues… perspective.”

Martin thought about that. Excelsior was nothing if not a giver of perspective, and Martin did want to get paid once in a while. At minimum, he wanted to get the cheese tray to himself once in a while.

A crossover pairing you think would work:

First of all, I love crossover pairings, but they seem to be fairly rare.  A lot of the time, writers will take two fandoms with similar couples and sort of cross-pair the characters for a while, but at the end of the story, it seems the characters have to end up with people from their fandom.  You get something similar with crossovers between fandoms that have the same actor/actress.  I understand this get-together trope, I even like it and might use it myself one day- it's just that what I most love are crossover pairings where nobody is using anybody as a stand-in for anybody else- it's just two people from different fandoms that would suit each other really well.

I think my favorites so far are Cabin Pressure/Sherlock crossovers with Arthur Shappey/Molly Hooper.  Crossovers between those two fandoms are pretty common, and Martin/Molly is popular too, for obvious reasons, but I always thought she and Arthur would have been well suited.

Though not necessarily a pairing, I also want to re-proclaim my undying love for Doctor Who crossovers with characters from other fandoms as companions.  That is never not cool.

I'm just doing my five main fannish obsessions of the moment, but I'll probably do other series as I go along, if only to get my tags and ships together.


The meme is:

1. The first character I fell in love with
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now
3. The character I love less than I used to
4. The character I just want to slap
5. A paring that I love
6. A pairing that I despise
