Red face Plane too heavy?!

I paid my first visit to Loondon City yesterday for a flight to Brussels. Got to the gate to be met with a PA announcement to the effect that the plane (Dash 8-300) was overweight and had to lose two passengers...and all the hold baggage!! To cap it all, when we did finally get going, there were certainly more than 2 seats free.

It was a pretty warm and humid day, and I guess the runway at LCY isn't huge, but then we're not talking a 747 here. Any suggestions from the pros?
