Yes, Of Course It’s A Life-Threatening Situation
A woman in Manchester dialled 999 because she was furious she could not get through to vote on the TV show Strictly Come Dancing. Others in a string of ridiculous emergency calls included a priest complaining he was not allowed to use a toilet in a W. H. Smith store and a man who said shop staff had put unwanted mushrooms on his pizza.

HA HA HA HA!
The stupidity of some people never ceases to amaze me! :0
Wow! Those people need to see some real emergency casualties and understand how much they are preventing other important calls getting through!
I say give people who make silly calls like this a very large fine... only this way will they stop being bloody idiots!
I'd make a lousy emergency telephone operator, I don't know how these guys manage to remain straight-faced and polite with these idiotic calls.
ah yes...and there's the "what time is it?" call, to which I trained my officers to answer "time to get a new clock."
