    Ì just posted that on the other thread, it's good to see them on tv.

    I just saw that they had someone use one back in May too and it looked like a different brand back then, maybe it was the same though.

    You could just see someone using in it. It was a proper scene though; not just some extra in the background. He got a right load of vapour out of it too seeing as it appeared to be a mini cigarette sized one.

    Unlike poor Johnny in that perfume ad passed off as a movie. But in fairness Johnny gave the spiel well.

    There was a reference to it, back in may Dot's housekeeper had one and Dot said she wasn't allowed to smoke and she said that it was a plastic one!

    In the episode this week he was sitting in the Cafe using it and someone turned around and looked at him and the guy with the cigarette said something like "first one of the day" or "first smoke of the day" or something like that.

    It had a green light at the end and produced an impressive amount of vapour.

    I noticed a few weeks ago in Eastenders (outside the Queen Vic I think) someone had a real cigarette which was just finished, and they flicked it out into the road...just like so many smokers do in reality. I bet the BBC got loads of complaints and decided to put in this e-cigarette to keep non smokers happy.
