Cabin Pressure is a British radio show – yes, they still exist – that follows the four-person crew of a single-plane charter airline on their exploits across the friendly skies. The program first aired in 2008, has twenty-five episodes divided into four seasons and a Christmas special, and is absolutely hilarious. I was directed towards the show as I was looking for something to satisfy my Sherlock fix as Benedict Cumberbatch is one of the voice actors. I immediately fell in love with Cabin Pressure's ability to conjure up vivid images with just sound, all the characters and, of course, the spine-tingling laughter. I'm not a connoisseur of radio shows, I only listen to that, so I'm not sure it's common to use voice actors as the visual reputation of their characters since it would be possible to use anyone. In any case, the folks at BBC Radio 4 do. The only official visuals that I'm aware of are some photos of the voice actors dressed as their characters. One of which is used to represent the show on iTunes. [Official Image] It makes sense that the amount of visual material for a radio show is limited, and fan-created art can make up for this. These works can fit into the canon, providing a visual representation of the events covered in the show, or artists can also choose to create their own series of events for the MJN Air crew to tackle. What surprises me a little is that all the fan art I've seen maintains the voice actors' appearances. I was expecting a wider range of interpretations from the crew, similar to the fan art of characters from the novels or more specifically the Welcome to Night Vale podcast, which vary greatly. Instead, Cabin Pressure fan art is closer to television or film art, and is heavily basic... middle of paper... Both fall within canon, as the characters are portrayed as they are in the image. original and soul-crushing is physically possible in their world, but it also breaks canon since John Finnemore won't kill the entire cast. Fan-created material is a way to expand Cabin Pressure from audio-only mediums to visual ones, whether it's a drawing or video. And I for one am satisfied with the results, even when they make me cry.
