I have created a Martin Crieff supercut of his “But I’M the captain" moments. It is simultaneously really hilarious and really sad. But I’m still laughing. I hope you all are laughing and crying with me. At any rate, this was pretty fun to make 😀
(Just a note – doesn’t include all the times he merely introduces himself as the captain, just when he has to say it with a certain amount of insistence. Otherwise it would’ve ended up as long as an actual full-length episode.)
I fly with a crew who, well, I’m not blaming them, it’s just… they never behave like the crews in the manuals! They don’t even behave like the crews in the manuals who are the examples of crews behaving badly! They do things no manual’s ever thought of!
MARTIN: Douglas I cannot help but notice, you’ve filled the flight deck with orchids.
DOUGLAS: Yes. Yes, I have done that. Yes.
MARTIN: Are you about to propose to me?
DOUGLAS: It pains me to break your heart Martin, but no. These are for another man, a Finnish customs officer named Milo, to be exact.
MARTIN: And what does he have that I don’t have?
DOUGLAS: Fishcakes.
Plot twist: Benedict uses his Martin Crieff voice for Smaug
