Default No Shelter

I'm surprised to see that there will be no shelter for the smokers.

Yeah i thought there would be as well because of weather... maybe they decided such privileges shouldn't be given just because they smoke
housemates weren't allowed to smoke in the house before the ban anyway were they?

it seems very strange not to have a shelter for smokers, they had one last year. it could cause arguments and punishments. if it is wet and cold outside and a smoker smokes inside, big brother could be in a lotof trouble for law breaking.

They can smoke anywhere in the garden. There's a bit of cover by the pool here:

A ban on smoking in England was brought into force last July, preventing people from smoking in bars, cafes etc., as well as places of work.

Officials at Hertsmere council, the council that governs the area the Big Brother house is located in, deemed the Big Brother house to be a workplace, hence housemates are only permitted to smoke in the garden.

This could cause war in the house if the smokers have to stand out in the rain to smoke, or on the other hand maybe none of the HM's smoke this year

No

The reason is that if there is a shelter, then the smoking ban will apply.

It is because of this that smoking under bus shelters is considered illegal
