      The authors consider total colourings of planar graphs. The total chromatic number \(\chi''(G)\) of a graph \(G\) is the smallest integer \(k\) such that \(G\) has a total-\(k\)-colouring. The main result of the present paper is the following theorem: If a planar graph \(G\) contains no intersecting triangles and \(\Delta(G)\geq 7\), then \(\chi''(G)= \Delta(G)+ 1\).
