I find the following couple of lines make their ears prick up.....
''cabin crew are on board for many reasons but I must now shock you all now by telling you the main reason is safety''.
''your newspapers,Hello magazines and copies of Harry Potter
are all very interesting but they all have one thing in common.....
they won't get you off the aircraft so please exchange them for your safety card and improve your chance of reading them tomorrow''!!
Also on all flights if it's a video turn all cabin lighting OFF
And failing all this let the punters know that at the end of the briefing the crew will come through and ask them safety questions

Save fuel.Shut the door half way through boarding and go!!!
