Posted By Heather Collins Regulation 6 of the Smoke-free (Exemptions and Vehicles) Regulations 2007 applies. "Where the artistic integrity of a performance makes it appropriate for a person who is taking part in that performance to smoke, the part of the premises in which that person performs is not smoke-free in relation to that person during his performance." http://www.opsi.gov.uk/s...i_20070765_en_1#pt2-l1g6 Google is your friend!

Posted By Bob Youel No exemption if they are performing in scotland as I know it Lead to believe if a script really need smoking the action can be 'dubbed [right term?] in after shooting when making a film

Posted By AHS Are Rastafarian's exempt as it is part of their religion. For instance Sikhs are exempt from safety helmets. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/...d/manchester/8287173.stm

Posted By Heather Collins Assuming this was a genuine question AHS... The Regulations relate to premises not to people so the answer is no. I should have said that my answer above relates specifically to England
