Sadly I think No-Angels depicted the common held view of our profession.The character was dealing with trivia in an OTT maner.Maybe we have some work to do to rescue our professional image??

Heh, it's only telly.
In any case , if you get a group of H&S professionals in a room together you will find a percentage of them are nitpicking, pedantic, jobsworths. They exist as fact. There may (or may not) be a majority of professional, competent H&S people but I doubt they would make a decent character in a TV comedy.

I beg to differ!
You only have to read some of the threads on this forum to realise that many of us are witty, extrovert and entertaining.
And some of us are hot babes too!!

Sadly, I didn't see the episode, but if the recent thread on "MRSA & Suicide By Upholstry" is anything to go on...
For those of us who missed it, can we have a summary so that we can all write letters to the Telegraph?

I think I must have been working with the last thread. Most men and women I come across in the H&S field you could not tell what sex either of them are. Maybe we should have our own H&S professionals calender with strategically placed safety equipment. How sad is that, ive got to much time on my hands.
PS im no oil painting either, before I get greif

Hot babes on these forums, I wonder if IOSH could set up a photo gallery part of this site?
Peter, not a nit picker, sometimes pedantic.

Well I think that Nit-picking should be spelt with a hyphen!
PS as a First aid trainer I reserve the right to be witty and interesting too!

Hot babes.... photo gallery, now thats the best suggestion I've heard for ages. Although I have to agree a previous response that the vast majority of H&S people I've met are, shall we say in my best Scots accent, "growlers by the way" . The calendar option would have to be widescreen format.

Erc,
My turn to be pedantic

Very good!
Did you know the origin of the word Burd comes from rhyming slang i.e. (Birds Lemon Curd)
To pedantic about semantics!
