Posted By Phil Davies Hi all, I am about to begin manual handling training for a "mixed bag" of workers. I have the presentation all ready, but I'm looking for a funny, appropriate clip that I can include (with permission if necessary). Remembers the "Faulty Towers Fire Drill" clip being used on a fire reg course once - pure genius. Why oh why wasn't "Fork handles" about manual labour? Any help would be appreciated Regards

Posted By GJB Phil, You'd have to consider copyright, but thinking aloud here:- There must be a clip from the Eric Sykes/Tommy Cooper film, The Plank? Also, try 'Only Fools & Horses' there are plenty of clips of Rodney unloading and loading the Reliant Robin! Or the 'Working at Heights' clip when they are on the ladders trying to catch the Chandelier in the sheet!.. certainly the intent to manual handle is there! If you have seen the Ricky Gervais series, 'The Office' there is actually a 'training session' (and I use that term loosely!) run by Gareth Keenan, basically, it shows how not to train someone! But then you can turn that around to meet your objective and I am sure your course/programme will be highly interactive and beneficial! Take care!

Posted By Phil Davies Many thanks G, that gives me something to go on with. If ever I can return the favour... Dear Mr Gervais......
