#CAPTAIN Martin Crieff
Text
Cabin Pressure is funny because a running theme of the show is Martin asking Douglas why everyone always thinks Douglas is the captain, and never once does Douglas offer the most obvious explanation: the twenty or so years of difference in age between them
so it reads like this:
man in his early thirties: why do they always think you’re the captain :(
man in his late fifties, working in an industry where age typically correlates with rank: bc i have self confidence :)

I’ve been binging Cabin Pressure during work and decided to do a quick sketch of Douglas and Martin... which turned into a not quite so quick pic of Douglas and Martin.
For those of you who haven’t listened to Cabin Pressure, please give it a listen - it’s peak comedy writing in my personal opinion!
I’ll get back to drawing Mando/Star Wars stuff very soon, but may squeeze in an Arthur and Carolyn first :D :D

(on the ground, somewhere in the airport)
ARTHUR: Here you are, Skip. Nice hot cup of coffee.
MARTIN: Oh. (he takes a sip.) Aww! It’s cold!
ARTHUR: Nice cup of coffee.
MARTIN: It’s horrible!
ARTHUR: Cup of coffee.
MARTIN: I’m not even sure it is coffee.
ARTHUR: ... Cup.
This exchange runs through my head every time I make a cup of coffee

- Martin, you're a berk.
- I'm not a berk, Carolyn. I'm an airline captain.

I know this might not be 100% a fill to the request but i tried

i woke up from a dream where we had to evacuate a plane and a flight attendant said “oh wait, we need to make sure people know who the captain is” grabbed me and started writing on my forehead with highlighter. and then the woman next to me was given a card that said 98F and she had to tape it to her head and the flight attendant gave her a thermometer and said “now you need to make sure your rectal temperature matches” and she nodded solemnly after which i woke up. what the fuck 🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀💀
#and i remember loudly arguing ‘nobody can see highlighter and i’m NOT the captain!’ reverse martin crieff#em speaks

I really do love reading characters who are absolutely terrible at communicating or engaging romantically with characters of the opposite sex as gay and afflicted by compulsory heterosexuality. One of the best things to come out of fandom.
#this is a callout post for the version of Martin Crieff#- sorry. Captain Martin Crieff#who lives in my head#cabin pressure#queerness

Lister: "Before something bad happens, maybe it's best you listen to Holly; she knows what she's talking about."
Douglas Richardson: "How can we be sure you aren't going to harm him? We don't know you."
Rimmer: "We don't know who you are either, but that nervous breakdown your captain is about to have is not going to take care of itself. Whatever happens, just please don't tell us 'we didn't warn you.'"
Carolyn: "Another breakdown, that's exactly what we don't need."
Arthur: "Holly, what do you mean by breakdown?"
As Douglas tries to calm a very distressed and nervous Martin Crieff, the first officer concedes.

Ice
“Ice,” drawled Douglas.
“What, where?” asked Martin, flustered.
“Ice,” repeated Douglas calmly.
“Where’s the ice?” yelled Martin in a panic.
“Not where, what!” explained Douglas. “The next word association. You go first.”
Martin slumped in relief. Not a real emergency then, just another of his infuriating First Officer’s word games.
“On the wings,” snapped Captain Martin Crieff, upset at having been misled by Douglas’s stupid word games, and yet still trying to play the game.
“Oh, didn’t mean to alarm you!” offered Douglas ironically, knowing all to well that he had made Martin panic unnecessarily.
“Your turn,” snapped Martin, trying to master his emotions and gain the upper hand in this battle of words.
“Yes, yes,” agreed Douglas in mock friendliness. “Now where were we?”
“Ice!” barked Martin. “Word association. Use of, definition, whatever. Your turn Douglas.”
Having thoroughly rattled Martin to start with, Douglas knew he could easily win this round. But it wasn’t much of a match if he had no real opposition.
“Gin and tonic,” offered Douglas half heartedly. “With a slice.”
“On the runway,” countered Martin quickly, anxious to gain ground.
“Ice bucket,” came the response. “Champagne, for the chilling of.”
““Ice in the engine,” quoted Martin, “May cause damage to, or deterioration in performance of, the engine’s power.””
“Were you quoting from the engine maintenance manual?” asked Douglas, knowing full well that it was Martin’s favourite bedtime reading matter.
“Well,” squirmed Martin, “what if I was?”
“Skating,” he countered.
There was a pause while Martin considered his next move.
“ICE” he said.
“Ice?” questioned Douglas. “That’s no answer! You have to give a use of the word, not repeat the word itself!”
“I.C.E.” spelled out Martin. “In Case of Emergencies. Your emergency contact number on your phone.”
Douglas, distracted, realised he really should update his ICE contact on his own mobile as it still listed his ex-wife who would be none to pleased to be called if Douglas were in some sort of emergency.
“Hmm, yes,” he managed, lost in thought. Who on earth could he put as his emergency contact now he was so very much divorced and alone?
A minute or so passed by.
“Time’s up!” crowed Martin. “I win!”
Douglas rolled his eyes and huffed faintly. If young Martin was so desperate to win then he’d allow him to, just this once, rather than spoil the long flight ahead of them.
“Very well,” Douglas conceded gracefully. “I was just thinking who I ought to list as my emergency contact. After my last divorce,…” he trailed off sadly.
“Mine’s you,” blurted out Martin.
“Eh?” asked Douglas, incoherent for once, not understanding his Captain.
“You’re my ICE,” explained Martin shyly. “There isn’t anyone else who would know what to do. In Case of Emergencies they should call you. If that’s Ok with you?”
Douglas glanced across at Martin, whose cheeks were blushing faintly at this admission. He was surprised and touched that Martin would put such trust in him.
Once again, Martin had surprised Douglas with his honesty and vulnerability. It made Douglas feel wanted and rather warm inside.
“I’d be honoured,” Douglas replied, in all seriousness.
Martin gave him an awkward smile and they continued in silence, Douglas feeling that they had made another profound step towards a true and lasting friendship.

Watched the new Dr Strange film last night with the family. During the credits my 14 year old turns to me and says "so he was... that was the guy who played Martin Crieff??" I tell him yes and after the stunned silence, he just says "....wow"
So sure Cumberbatch is a big marvel boy now, but to my son (who had a Cabin Pressured themed 8th birthday) he'll always be an anxious air dot captain.
the talisker was maple syrup.

Y’know say what you will about the horrors that is BBC Sherlock, but I don’t think we will ever again see the timing for my absolute favourite flavour of crossover AU fics, ‘wow here’s the amazing Sherlock Holmes and here’s his absolutely pathetic wet rag of a cousin Captain Martin Crieff, we don’t talk about him because his man with a van business brings shame upon the whole family’, as the camera swings between the Chad Holmes’ and Martin (see: ginger benedict cumberbatch) who has the energy of a depressed house cat in a nice hat.
Simply because Benedict cumberbatch played the most airline pilot of the year in a radio drama around the same time.
