Bearing in mind it's still a minority of flights with IFE problems, the product has been reduced, and the CSD is there to man a trolley to fill the gap of the lost crewmember.

Worst case scenario as I see it is that the crew rest will be reduced marginally. (No hardship on the Bombay I did last week when half the crew were in bed 1.15 after take-off)
Hi midman,
It's great to hear that taking a crew member off a flight will only reduce crew rest.
My post was based only from what I read on the BA ESS Forum through CSD and Purser postings and talking to friends who are CSDs on Worldwide.
My apologies as I'm not qualifed to predict what problems you may have not having any worldwide experience.
