What a feckin muppet that Clive guy is. Just confused things hasn't got a clue regarding part p etc.

Hated him when he had his rubbish BBC scare everyone and slate everyone show. Just making everything sound worse than it actually was.

Listening to it as I reply to this.

Who is clive Holland Lee?

 

[Wilko]

We should let a few of our guys loose on him

I had to google who this Clive Holland is and am not impressed

Electrical installation topics are few and far between,the BBC could have had a better informed person to give of advice
Not once did he mention the need to test to ensure safety,the people phoning in were not reprimanded once with regard to testing

Last time he was on Jeremy Vine I sent an email of complaint to the BBC regarding his dubious advice .... still waiting on a reply.....

 

[Andy-1960]

This guy is giving dangerous and incorrect advice!
We should all complain to the BBC!

I did chuckle to day listening to that Clive.

 

[casperLennon]

He told people to turn breaker off then carry out work. What about making sure it's dead? Shouldn't be allowed to give advice

 

[valleybilly]

Thats the BBC on everything !

I did think this topic might make an appearance tonight! Why get a builder to give 'expert' advice on electrical matters? Last time I heard him on the Jeremy Vine show he was giving incorrect advice about safe wiring zones. Today it was part P and notifiable work he got wrong. It makes you wonder about all the other experts the show uses on other topics!

 

[Andy-1960]

Next week he has Terry Walton (The Welsh Gardener) giving advice on safe earthing ... well it's close enough for the BBC!

The customer whose house I working in today was wondering why I was loudly (might have been shouting) calling someone a big fat, bald header chain n anchor. I had to explain that the so called expert is actually a fat to$$er who wouldn't know how to lace his shoes. How he got a job on the tv and radio is beyond me.

 

[Octopus]

How he got a job on the BBC is beyond me.

Simple answer is that he must be a paid up member of the Labour party and subscribes to the Guardian......
