This BBC3 sitcom has split viewers and critics alike right down the middle. It's like marmite - it's something you either love or hate.

Each episode starts slowly but soon picks up, with Clint sparking much of the humour. Len adds a touch of filth, with his constant swearing, which only adds to the comedy value. Be warned though, it takes a while to get into the characters (but doesn't it always)... however Clint, Lils, Len, Sally, Annie & Rob soon become very familiar.

BSG visitor Damien adds "This show just gets better and better. You've really got to get to know the characters to pick up on all the jokes. I like the way they've hold so much info back until later episodes - like Robin being a closet gay - instead of spelling everything out from day one." and Steven has written to us to say "The Smoking Room is fantastic, doing what British comedy does best, flawed but lovable people stumbling through life, love and work. I'm hooked."

The BBC have announced that a third series will not be produced however writer Brian Dooley is moving onto a new, un-named, project for the BBC.
