The mouse could be called Arthur Mouse, and then it'd sound like we're all just saying "ah, the mouse", and then none of us will get in trouble for giving the mouse a name when we weren't supposed to.
Yep, I was gonna say the same thing. Lemon is an excellent name and should make it an excellent game trying to find out where it acually is. Shame it's not actually yellow, because then I think you could make a "Yellow Mouse!" version of the Yellow Car game for whenever you spot it. "Brown Mouse!" doesn't quite sound so exciting, does it?
If you call the mouse "Yellow Car" you can continue playing, even when you're not outside. Or you call her "Green Truck" for double points. Anyway, thank you very much for your videos, they brighten my day.
Maybe our mouse wants different names depending on what colour it is when you see it. So maybe when you see it and it's brown you call it Fizz, and when you see it and it's grey you call it Buzz?
I want to say 'thanks' for this. Cabin Pressure is permanently loaded onto my mp3 player and when things get stressful and sleep is hard at night, I find an episode of that little world is enough to calm me down and help me sleep. I've been listening to it a lot these past few weeks and these new videos are a surprising treat and greatly welcomed.
also ditto. years after its release and cabin pressure still gets me through sleepless nights, anxious moments, and annoying illnesses. i can't think of anyone i'd rather spend a few minutes with every couple of days during this quarantine than arthur. tremendous thanks!
The best name I can think of for your (I mean the) mouse to keep you entertained during these difficult times, is Fizz. That way you can keep playing Fizz Buzz and I'm sure it will make your mum's day to hear you shouting 'Have a Banana!' through the walls at regular intervals. Stay safe Arthur and pass on my best wishes to your mate John. :D
If you don’t (we don’t) name the mouse you can later sing “I’ve been through the lockdown near a mouse with no name, la la, la la la la” 🎶🎵 and it can remain a mouse of mystery. And that grey-brown colour is called “mouse brown”. How weird is that?
Call the brown one Strudel and the grey one Cheesecake then you can have a bet with Martin which one you'll see most often! BTW this channel is BRILLIANT 🤣
I think you should call the mouse Arthur, so if your mum hears you talking to it, you can just pretend you were talking to yourself, and she'll never know you named it!
Well, since you ask me for name for a mouse, how about... Sir Finnemore of Cheese Mr Mulligan Mr Mulligan the 3rd Ian His Royal Highness the King of Cheese and Crackers. Benedict Cumbermouse Stilton in the house Mozzarella the Mouse Careful Mouse - Danger mouse's less ambitious cousin
I think you should name the mouse Marthur because it's name has to start with an M, obviously. It's named by us, not you, so your name is fine. But best of all when your mum shouts your name it will sound like she's calling the mouse so you can reply "Do you mean me or the mouse mum?" and she will absolutely love that, she will, no she really will. Thanks so much for these, got told to stay home from work last night and it still feels incredibly strange.
I can’t believe I only just found this. Cabin pressure is my favourite radio series I must’ve listened to 100 times. Your work is brilliant thank you so much 🤗
Hello Arthur! Other people have come up with better names for the mouse(s) than I could ever have, they had brilliant ideas. So I'll just say that when I feel that I'm flying into a mountain, your videos pull me up and fly me over the mountain. Thank you!
Hi Arthur, thank you for your brilliant update. It's a REALLY appreciated few minutes of happiness (and remembering many happy games of the Travelling lemon and Yellow Car with loved ones outside our own 'granny' flats)
When it's brown: Basil (like Basil the great mouse detective!), and when its grey and a bit bigger: Professor (like Professor Ratigan...but not Ratigan, as it is obviously not a rat!)
Bought one for youngest daughter a couple of years ago, and a 'Attention mes amis. Regardez vous le Bear Polar' for my other daughter (who's adored polar bears since she was titchy)
How about ‘my friend John’? That way, when you’re talking to Carolyn on the phone you can just say ‘I was talking to My friend John today’ or ‘I left some cheese out to cheer up my friend John today’ and you won’t even be lying which means you won’t fall over even a little bit!
We also have discovered a mouse in our isolation zone, he's been nabbing our bread in the night. I've named him Mouse-turbator (...a play on words, Arthur, because the mouse is an "aggravator", and for no other reason). I'd call yours a Mouse-ter of Disguise, due to his shape shifting skills.
Wonderful video, Arthur! We could name the mouse "Attic Pilot" because it lives with you in the same space (like a friendly ghost) and never bothers anyone (except your mother). And if we do get really attached to it we can call it "Mouse Mouse" between ourselves and you can call it something else (Goofy or Raspberry or Tim Buckley) when talking to your mother. This way only we will know that we are talking about the real mouse. By the way: You now have to say "brown mouse" or "grey mouse" as soon as you see it. I wonder... can you imagine one hundred mice inside your own home? But beware: Maybe this mouse is the reincarnation of Mr Lehman (or Leeman?) and he is back to haunt you...
I can’t explain how much Arthur reminds me of my sister, the ottery st Mary episode is so much like her it’s actually ridiculous. Thank you, that series is honestly the funniest thing I have ever listened to.
OK definitely did cry this time! (Always cry at Zurich Part 2 as well lol). Thank you soooooo much, Arthur!!! How about Mr. Burling for the mouse?!?! And you van give him a tiny bit of whiskey and watch rugby together!!!
Yey!! Hello again Arthur!!!! Its wonderful to hear from you!! I am absolutely loving the update! I think being able to play nine sounds with 3 notes is brilliant too, I wish my keyboard did that! Names for a mouse: Martin the mouse, Skipper, Captain Squeak, or (after your good self) The Steward? Thank you for being a light in the dark, you are brilliant!!
Watching this video all the way through ...and enjoying it , massively...does confirm that I have total cabin fever ha ha! Also obviously the mouse must be called Squeak surely?! Fear not, if you do not what Mum suggests, you will soon have even MORE mousey friends!
BRILLIANT! This is absolutely brilliant, thank you, Arthur! Made my day, I think we all need more cheeriness! For the mouse (or maybe... Mice?), well there have been plenty of brilliant suggestions and my personal favourite was to call it Fizz or Buzz depending on the colour it has, so you can sing 'Have a banana!' at regular intervals.
Thank you so much for this, really brightened my day. Brilliant! I've also started reading more since we all have to stay in for a while. Just finished The Da Vinci Cod and will be starting Three Men in a Boa soon :) Sending you lots of love from Croatia :-*
Hearing Arthur won't name the mouse: Oooh Hearing WE get to name the mouse: HOORAAY! Hmmm...what to name the mouse. I'm aware Arthur shouldn't get too attached, so Gordon first came to mind. But I feel that's a bit unfair to the mouse, cause she (yes, it's a she now) hasn't done anything wrong and simply politely walked along the wall, making sure Arthur didn't get hurt. Then I thought naming her after one of Arthur's brilliant girlfriends might be the way to go, but maybe that would get things confused when he talks to mum? I can see horrible misunderstandings happening, soooo no. Finding a middle ground...a name that makes one happy but not too much, with a just a bit of wistfulness...? ...Hey, how about Mogli?? Mogli the Mouse!
Goofy? Or pick one of the Seven Dwarves, Martin can absolutely help with those! Plus if the mouse turns out to have 6 friends, you already have names for them!
Hello Arthur. There are some fabulous name suggestions on here, but I'm not very clever and can't think of anything. I suppose you could call him Lord High Arch-duke Mousey of Skirtingboardstonia, to remind you of Martin and Theresa. Thank you for your post. I'm really looking forward to the next one xx
i love this series so so much, thank u so much john for relaying the videos of your friend. my name suggestion for the mouse is mickey! you could also name it douglas, i feel like he would appreciate that very much
4:01-Is that the armchair from the "Since you ask me" segment? 1)Sir Mouse About 2)Danger Mouse 3)Mouseketeer 4)Mighty Mouse 5)Like a mawse! 6)Ben (you're always running here and there...)
Can I scribble out the “Like” button and replace it with a “BRILLIANT!” Button?
That's so funny!! I really wish you could do something like that!!
Brilliant!
Put a button beside it with a Lemon 🍋!
The mouse could be called Arthur Mouse, and then it'd sound like we're all just saying "ah, the mouse", and then none of us will get in trouble for giving the mouse a name when we weren't supposed to.
Brilliant!!!
That's brilliant skip, that's so good we thought Douglas must have come up with that one
There's already an Arthur, so this must be Benjy, shurely?
Or, if Caroline gets her way, we'd all just be saying "(h)alf a mouse"
@@joeofarrell64all the best laid plans of mice
The mouse should be called 'Lemon' because it's always in play and traveling around.
I was thinking the same thing! Seconded!
Brilliant!
Yes! Another 'Brilliant' vote for this!
@@Teri0is0Resa Can I second your seconding? or would that be second squared? (I never was very good with maths!)
Yep, I was gonna say the same thing. Lemon is an excellent name and should make it an excellent game trying to find out where it acually is. Shame it's not actually yellow, because then I think you could make a "Yellow Mouse!" version of the Yellow Car game for whenever you spot it. "Brown Mouse!" doesn't quite sound so exciting, does it?
I thought the mouse should be called Tailisker. But as it is a real mouse then it should be Tailisker Tailisker.
Steve Tracey I nearly dropped my phone reading this
love this one!
Tailwhisker!
This one is my FAVORITE.
Steve Tracey This has made me very happy.
If you call the mouse "Yellow Car" you can continue playing, even when you're not outside. Or you call her "Green Truck" for double points. Anyway, thank you very much for your videos, they brighten my day.
Oh this is brilliant!
Only in Liechtenstein!
"Yellow Car" if it's looking brown, "Green Truck" if it's looking gray?
@@saltysun6387 Sounds reasonable.
Or Black Dog...
Maybe our mouse wants different names depending on what colour it is when you see it. So maybe when you see it and it's brown you call it Fizz, and when you see it and it's grey you call it Buzz?
Genius
And of course...here I am don’t step on me!
Brilliant!
'Brother, stay where thou art' is genius
Algernon
Minimum Martin
"Mouse...nold... Man..er...RAT! Sir! Man!" "Mousenold Maneratsuman?"
My Dear Arthur, you should name the mouse 'Legion', for reasons which will become apparent shortly.
The mouse obviously should be called he-who-must-not-be-named.
He-who-mouse-not-be-named?
Lil’ Arthur Mouseington II
or Mousie McMouseface
@@dyee185 haha. That's even better!!!!
Came up with a few literary ones:
Thomouse Hardy
Sir Arthur Rodent Doyle
Ratticus Finch
J.R.R Tolkien (but the "R"s stand for "rat")
J. Rat. Rat. Tolkien, love it!
J. Rattus Rattus surely?
As it's keen on the skirting board, how about calling it Wayne Scotting?
I want to say 'thanks' for this.

Same. I pull them out whenever I feel overwhelmed.
Ditto!
also ditto. years after its release and cabin pressure still gets me through sleepless nights, anxious moments, and annoying illnesses. i can't think of anyone i'd rather spend a few minutes with every couple of days during this quarantine than arthur. tremendous thanks!
Same! When life gets to be a lot I pull it out. I often describe the series as sunshine in audio form
Can't fly without Cabin Pressure :)
I love “the lemon is in play” t-shirt
I think you should name the mouse ‘Douglas’, after your friend, Douglas. I think he’d really appreciate that
Or his identical twin brother, Dougy
Brilliant!
Dougal
Marvin
My first thought...
call it Reg, because "it reg" is GERTI backward, and it's the opposite of GERTI because a mouse can't fly , that's bats you are thinking of.
The best name I can think of for your (I mean the) mouse to keep you entertained during these difficult times, is Fizz. That way you can keep playing Fizz Buzz and I'm sure it will make your mum's day to hear you shouting 'Have a Banana!' through the walls at regular intervals.

And that grey-brown colour is called “mouse brown”. How weird is that?
This is BRILLIANT, Arthur! And I think you should call the mouse "Toblerone"
Because it's brown and pointy
Wonder whether there's white or a black one too, or just the normal one...
Cordy, aged 9, I listen to Cabin Pressure every night! I would like to call the mouse Snuffles.
Next movie: Of mouse and man
this is absoulutely GENIUS
Clever
Very proud, Tom
The quarantine is worth it if it got John to do these for us.
Call the brown one Strudel and the grey one Cheesecake then you can have a bet with Martin which one you'll see most often!
BTW this channel is BRILLIANT 🤣
If the mouse is a bit brownish, comes in miniature, and keeps turning up in unexpected places, maybe a good name for it would be Talisker!
The lemon is ACTUALLY in play !! This is brilliant, so happy I spotted it☀
This is going to get me through the lockdown, I can tell. Nothing but respect for our Nation’s Greatest Crazy Golfer
I think you should call the mouse Arthur, so if your mum hears you talking to it, you can just pretend you were talking to yourself, and she'll never know you named it!
I've got it and it's brilliant: Mark Ramprakash
Mouse Ramprakash.
Or, how about “Lemon,” since you’ll never know when he’s going to show up and therefore he’ll always be “in play.”
Well, since you ask me for name for a mouse, how about...
Sir Finnemore of Cheese
Mr Mulligan
Mr Mulligan the 3rd
Ian
His Royal Highness the King of Cheese and Crackers.
Benedict Cumbermouse
Stilton in the house
Mozzarella the Mouse
Careful Mouse - Danger mouse's less ambitious cousin
Careful Mouse 😂
You should call the mouse Arthur Millener
Because it sounds like a name... a mouse would have
Because it seems to change my suggestion is Surprising Mouse
Martin the Magnificent, Marvellous, Madquerading, Magical Mouse.
I think you should name the mouse Marthur because it's name has to start with an M, obviously. It's named by us, not you, so your name is fine. But best of all when your mum shouts your name it will sound like she's calling the mouse so you can reply "Do you mean me or the mouse mum?" and she will absolutely love that, she will, no she really will.
Thanks so much for these, got told to stay home from work last night and it still feels incredibly strange.
I can’t believe I only just found this. Cabin pressure is my favourite radio series I must’ve listened to 100 times. Your work is brilliant thank you so much 🤗

Behold! Surprising MICE!!

Sneaky shot of “the lemon is in play” hoodie 👀🍋
Just found these! I didn't know how much I missed Arthur and his relentless optimism. This makes this blizzardy day all better.
When it's brown: Basil (like Basil the great mouse detective!), and when its grey and a bit bigger: Professor (like Professor Ratigan...but not Ratigan, as it is obviously not a rat!)
THERE IS A LEMON IS IN PLAY T-SHIRT?! (caps because I'm so excited)

@@Doove117 from....?
@@VonBlade Google it. Redbubble mainly. Some on amazon.
@@Doove117 I guessed those places, didn't know if there was a semi official site that might help John and the cast.
Bought one for youngest daughter a couple of years ago, and a 'Attention mes amis. Regardez vous le Bear Polar' for my other daughter (who's adored polar bears since she was titchy)
Name the mouse White Fang, and then you’ll sort of have found White Fang, in a way.
Our humble thoughts for the name of your.. our.. the... It's own mouse!:
Wolfgang Amadeus Mousart
Rodent Downey Jr
Shoot (the mouse-enger)
Mouse name- sticking with the piano theme Wolfgang Amadeus Mouse-art. Love the videos!
If we name the mouse "Mum" then IF you accidentally start talking to it, and your Mum catches you, you can say, "I was talking to YOU!"
These are pure joy.
The mouse should be named, “ Brilliant,” of course! Because, it is!
Anonymouse!
Or, if necessary, the Anonymice
How about ‘my friend John’? That way, when you’re talking to Carolyn on the phone you can just say ‘I was talking to My friend John today’ or ‘I left some cheese out to cheer up my friend John today’ and you won’t even be lying which means you won’t fall over even a little bit!

You should name the mouse Yellow Car so you can still play yellow car while staying safely at home!
Arthur, thank you so much for these vidoes.
I think, after a few more days of isolation and empty supermarkets, we'll call the mouse "Lunch"
:D :D :D (Love it, though it is kind of cruel :)
This is like that documentary about Douglas's daughter Sarah and her duck... er... Duck. "Arthur and Mouse" BRILLIANT
I can’t explain how much Arthur reminds me of my sister, the ottery st Mary episode is so much like her it’s actually ridiculous. Thank you, that series is honestly the funniest thing I have ever listened to.

Made my day, I think we all need more cheeriness!
For the mouse (or maybe... Mice?), well there have been plenty of brilliant suggestions and my personal favourite was to call it Fizz or Buzz depending on the colour it has, so you can sing 'Have a banana!' at regular intervals.
I think you've got a mouse with two personalities there, so how about Doctor J-eek-yll and Mouster Hyde?
I love mice, they're so cute! You could always name it Brie (like the cheese) - short for 'Brielliant'!
I think Arthnold Manacatsaman would be a brilliant name.
Arthnold ManaMOUSEsaman
Since you are Arthur, the mouse could be called Merlin. :D
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for these. Just spent 6 BRILLIANT minutes watching today's.

Oh thank goodness you have saved my sanity x
Dear Arthur, here's my suggestion for how to call the mouse: MMFN (standing for: my mouse friend now)
I think the mouse should be called Skip.
I gave a loud guffaw at the very last thing you said before the credits! Excellent timing!
You could always name the mouse Camel Camel, if you like, it being brown and all (at least most of the time).
Hearing Arthur won't name the mouse: Oooh
Hearing WE get to name the mouse: HOORAAY!
Hmmm...what to name the mouse. I'm aware Arthur shouldn't get too attached, so Gordon first came to mind. But I feel that's a bit unfair to the mouse, cause she (yes, it's a she now) hasn't done anything wrong and simply politely walked along the wall, making sure Arthur didn't get hurt.

Finding a middle ground...a name that makes one happy but not too much, with a just a bit of wistfulness...?
...Hey, how about Mogli?? Mogli the Mouse!
Goofy?
Or pick one of the Seven Dwarves, Martin can absolutely help with those! Plus if the mouse turns out to have 6 friends, you already have names for them!
I think this is the first RUclips video I've seen with no dislikes, your doing something right John.
Strawberry - that way you won't get attached to it!
Hello Arthur. There are some fabulous name suggestions on here, but I'm not very clever and can't think of anything. I suppose you could call him Lord High Arch-duke Mousey of Skirtingboardstonia, to remind you of Martin and Theresa. Thank you for your post. I'm really looking forward to the next one xx
The mouse should be called either "Mousnoldmanerkatzerman" or "Home Alone 5: The Holiday Heist"
Peter Duncan - he's not the Peter Duncan though...
Wolfgang Amadeus Mouse-art was obviously attracted to your BRILLIANT piano.
Why don't you name the mouse after your friend John?
