    Can anyone help with advice on changing this bathroom ceiling globe lamp?
    It's stuck fast and won't budge an inch despite twisting and turning. I'm afraid it will break if I try and force it. Much appreciated!

    That's usually an anticlockwise twist to get it off. Try that again and what I would do if it doesn't work is use a hairdryer for a little while on the base plate to see if heat does any good for you. When twisting I would wear gloves or wrap the globe in a towel in case it does shatter. Good luck

    Thanks! The hairdryer worked a treat!
