The Smoking Room: Series 2, Episode 1 - Bzzzzzzzzz - British Comedy Guide (original) (raw)

An angry bee causes growing panic in the smoking room.

Further details

Janet's nephew, Dominic (Mathew Horne), is conducting a psychological study into workplace dynamics for his university thesis.

As a basis for this, Janet has suggested that he shadow Robin for a day - a day he is now doomed to spend entirely in the smoking room.

The rest of the smokers do their best to ignore him, a task they find easier after they detect the presence of another intruder in the room - an angry bee.

As he witnesses the growing panic spreading around him, it's clear to Dominic that he's not perhaps in the best place to advance his university studies.
