1. To the OP, I haven't watched any episodes from the new season yet (though I have been recording them), but I'm pretty sure that last season they had a "smokers corner". Not sure if it was specifically designated as that or if it was just where the smokers went when they needed their fix. (edited to add: I'm talking about BBUSA)
2. To the person who mentioned the Victorian custom of emptying bedpans out the window... Dude... check your facts. :) That is really not true of the Victorians. Of earlier periods, yes. Victorians, no.
3. I highly doubt BB gives a rat's @ss about health and safety. They just want people to watch the show. Having a place where people can easily form a clique to the exclusion of others suits their plans just fine. I don't see it disappearing any time soon.
If they really cared about health and safety, they would ban alcohol. The UK is one of the countries with the fastest growing rate of alcoholism in the world. And the group which is growing the fastest is women in their 20s.
