A Best Boy is the Gaffers assistant (well also the Grips assistant too if
you have enough crew). A Gaffer is the head electrician and a Grip is the
head of rigging the lights. Funny old game isn't it :)

Used extensively in the film industry (look for "gaffer" in the credits,
possibly also listed as "best boy" or something like that).
