Yeah, I am. Sarking, as I mentioned.

Who does that?

The only foil insulation I've seen used on building sites is either laid
over the roof battens under the tin or tiles, or rapped around the wall
frames before the bricks or boards go on. The majority of inner roof
insulation is either bats or sprayed in dust.

I had the roof replaced a few years ago and they laid chicken wire over the
rafters and battens, then laid the foil insulation over the top of that,
this means there is no chance of the foil dropping down onto the wiring
