Only Temporary

The Smoking Room, episode Seven. First aired 10/08/04 BBC THREE

We're all going on a summer holiday.

Lilian has just returned from Greece where she met Aristotle… who was genuinely interested in her, and not after her money.

Len is off to Disney World soon. Sally may have misinterpreted his comment about 'shaking hands with Mickey'.

Robin finds a photo of himself with Ben from the post room amongst Lilian's holiday snaps. Unfortunately Ben's head has been chopped off as Lilian was drunk when she took it.

Fag Count
A total of 11 fags are smoked in this episode. Only Clint and Heidi abstain.

There's a new blond, leggy temp at the office called Miranda. Clint is very impressed when it is revealed that she's Robin's ex girlfriend.

Barry is quite smitten with the temp, even though she spilt coffee down his trousers. Due to this unfortunate incident, he sports a pair of rather hideous Bermuda shorts throughout the show.

Lilian accidentally outs Robin as bi-sexual. What she really meant to say was 'unisex'. Arrange the words 'nail', 'head', 'the' and 'on'.

Barry wonders...

...which precious metal will fit in his crossword: is it flabinum, blabinum or glabinum?

Shaking hands with Mickey...
