Quitters
The Smoking Room, series two, episode six. First aired 30/08/05 BBC THREE
It's enough to drive you to smoke...
An anti-smoking seminar has been organised in the smoking room and all the smokers have been ordered to attend - not because Sharon fears for their health, but because too much time is being wasted on breaks.
Robin's put out to discover that Ben misled him and isn't in fact going to be at the seminar. Annie declares she doesn't really need to be there as she's not a real smoker.
The general atmosphere isn't helped when Derek, the unfortunate man charged with running the session manages to alienate most of the smokers in turn with his overly jolly and patronising manner.
In the end even Sharon is moved to join forces with her staff to put an end to matters before they get out of hand.
The world according to Clint...
In this episode, we learn why Clint smokes rollies. It's because proper cigarettes are only for pussies who aren't prepared to put in the effort.
