Stupid question but is the only thing between the tiles and the trusses the membrane and battens?
Are sloping roofs with tiles ever built with more 'stuff' ie ply boarding over the trusses either on the outside or inside?

You're correct. You can get boards in between which is known as sarking and used in Scotland quite a lot, but it's not really done down here. The previous roof was just batten and tiles, no felt at all, and that did not leak.

its only now that i am beginning to understand why even a broken tile may cause a leak! my current house had broken and missing tiles until a couple of days ago and i always wondered why it would lead to water ingress.... im pretty sure that i wont have any of the sarking stuff hence why plaster internally got damp even after light drizzle...

It depends how they overlap, I have a few broken ones but the overlap is always 3 tiles deep spo I think at least two would need to be broken in the same place to cause a problem.

quite, conversely, i couldn't understand why we had no water leaks with 10% missing or cracked, 800 tiles! not one leak & the reason being that on removal they were x 4 thick in all but an inch. tiny roof 13m x 6.5m but 8 ton of hand made 1 " thick tiles.

I must admit I do like that fascia board. You're giving me ideas. No worries about it turning white over the years to come?
Also - hip irons? Soffit vents?

It should be UV stable so will last a while! No hip irons as the hip tiles are nailed on and no soffit vents are required as its a hybrid warm roof.

There's always that awkward moment when you are demolishing it and you realise you are standing on the bit that will fall down...

Things have moved on a little but I can't show you as I'm in bed with a collapsed lung probably about to go into hospital for a week for a chest drain :/
