I guess not much happens in Ipswich, so it will forever be known as the place where badger damage almost ruined a film shoot by Benedict Cumberbatch!
But to me, Ipswich will always be the place in Cabin Pressure where Arthur took a course on how to understand people. And where the MJN crew (all 4 of them) later went on their training course.

And Arthur ate a lot of quiche!
I just love that whole series!

My local PBS station is not listing it at all yet. It would be nice if they showed it at the same time as all the other PBS stations!

www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/19Vhdhv4fhcTSn2jHqy4WCP/tv-review-of-the-yearIt’s indeed a very heartbreaking and raw scene especially because it feels very real and natural. It seems the movie is selling well and had good ratings but at the same time it was very low key so it wouldn’t be a surprise if it’s ignored by awards. I think BC’s performance is the one element with the biggest possibility but it also was very subtle, restrained and unassuming. I really hope to see him playing more parts like this one in the future and not just all those bigger than life characters.(which he also is great playing). Anyway it doesn't matter if it’s ignored it was a very powerful production and something different to for the BBC One.

⬆️ This is exactly what I feel about TCiT!
It doesn’t matter a whit if it gets any awards - it already has won my emotional core and that’s enough for me! Any gongs would be icing on the cake but not really necessary.
And that scene... my favourite by far in a production that is filled with intense feelings, subtle humour, perfect accompanying music and BC doing what he does sooooo well - being the heart and soul of the film and still letting others shine!
Everything about that scene was so pitch perfect! The utter understanding of the school principal (and yet her solid protectiveness of the child who Stephen had mistaken for his daughter). The wariness of the teacher, the beautiful innocence of the school girl and of course the heartbreaking, aching sadness of Stephen when he realises his delusion. I tear up just thinking of Stephen’s tearful gasping as he breaks down alone in the principal’s office. Like you said so real and natural - that’s what hits the hardest!

That scene was devastating. Ben was perfection. I remember saying “O god, no!” out loud while I was watching it. The tension was unbearable.
I hope the production does get some accolades, if just for Ben, cos he deserves them. Phenomenal piece of acting.
