HAPPY TALK: Or not so happy talk

This really happened last week on an Aer Lingus flight from Dublin to Paris. 

It seems that a member of the crew accidently played a pre-recorded French speaking emergency ditching message which naturally caused alarm with those passengers who had some knowledge of the language.

Around 70 travellers from the land of the tricolour were reported to be "freaked out" on hearing the warning.

Once the cabin crew realised what had happened an apologetic further announcement was made.  In English naturally.
