The Smoke is a British drama that debuted on Sky1 on 20 February 2014. The show is written by Lucy Kirkwood and stars Jamie Bamber, Jodie Whittaker and Rhashan Stone.
The show was cancelled after one series.
The series describes the high-adrenaline adventures of White Watch, a team of London firefighters. Leading the crew is Kev, a good man injured and betrayed during the worst fire of his career. Standing by Kev's side as he returns to work is his gutsy girlfriend Trish and his cocksure friend and fellow firefighter Mal. Other members of the crew include the fearless Ziggy and the mysterious new boy Dennis.
It's the morning after the night before and morale is low in White Watch as the team launch a risky rescue attempt. Kev discovers that Gog, a friend of fellow fireman Asbo, was the thug responsible for his injuries and Little Al gets in over his head at a cage fight.
The animosity between Dennis (Asbo) and Mal reaches boiling point, which has explosive consequences during a rescue at a dilapidated building. Meanwhile Trish visits her daughter.
It's the one-year anniversary of the Churchill Estate fire and, while Dennis reaches breaking point, information comes to light that could lead Kev to the truth.
The powerful drama intensifies as White Watch try to save Trish from an explosive situation in the Blackwall Tunnel.
