I'm sure all the die-hard Cabin Pressure fans among you are already aware of this little video, but I can't refrain from sharing it myself, because it's utterly BRILLIANT! Yesterday, during a CP recording, our master and commander John Finnemore finally received the 'Lemons & Landmarks' book many people in the fandom had been working on for several ( Read more... )
