Those sent to Cranebank for the BA safety event (such as long term GGLers and Prems, plus the BA FT events) are invited to check this out. Some of them to get stolen, particularly to places like NCE, and I've had 2 missing jackets in the last 10 years or so (1 to NCE, the other to JMK).

Am I crazy in thinking I've seen two versions?
I could have sworn one version has Ian McKellen saying "do you think so? I hope so! ("NEXT!")" when told he'll get the part, and the other has him saying "I usually do"...

I was coming off a LIH-LAX-IAD stint for IAD-LHR, so quite possible I imagined it.

From the 1st September.
Introduction
A referral to review the safety card and request that baggage be left behind in an emergency situation has been added to the 10 and 20 Minutes to Landing Announcements for all flights from all bases to achieve compliance with new regulatory requirements. In addition, reference has also been made to alert customers to the change in requirement for window blinds to be returned to the open/clear position for landing.
If you are seated by a window and have lowered the blind please return this to the open position for landing.

Just ... too ... long (6 minutes end to end?)
I guess many of the "celeberaties" won't be recognisable to most customers (I didn't recognise a couple of them!).
I've seen it twice and the novelty is already wearing off.....

I will miss, in no particular order:
The Rabbit
The Janet Jackson look-alike under her blanket
The redhead who bounces vertically on her way back to her seat
The guy with the scary eyes 'paying attention'
This will just 'blank' me, I regret. It's utterly, utterly, awful. It lacks any serious safety communication, cabin realism and is populated by unknown non-entities [aka 'Celebs'].
