Douglas: Little flashing warning light, Captain. Anti-icing the starboard wing. Declaring itself rabbit of negative euphoria.

Martin: What?

Douglas: Not a happy bunny.

Superb. 

I stumbled upon this by accident when I was browsing my library's audiobooks. 

 

Stephanie Cole plays the owner of a struggling airline that has one plane, one quite simple stewart (her son, played by David Finnemore), a first officer (Roger Allam), and a somewhat inadequate captain (played by Benedict Cumberbatch).

 

Every episode is dedicate to a destination that somehow features in the story. 

 

This series had me laughing hard in between some rather more serious reads.

 

Series 4 was the weakest of the series but still a riot, even tho the ending was predictable and a little sad because I had grown to like the characters so much.
