Smoggie Queens

Absolutely hilarious, sharp, witty and at times poignant comedy series based in Middlesbrough. Smoggie Queens is well worth watching and as a proud gay Smoggie love that it's putting Middlesbrough and LGBTQ+ community on the map in a positive way. Totally recommend it and hoping there's going to be a 2nd series. And a WOW factor added to it is seeing Michelle Visage having a great part in Smoggie Queens (see if you can spot her). I thoroughly enjoyed watching the whole series on BBC iPlayer laughing, being supportive, loving it. It makes a fabulous change of seeing Middlesbrough being portrayed in a more positive way because that's the experience I have always been proud of myself coming from Middlesbrough, even though not perfect but is mainly a great inclusive town (should be a city by now). Smoggie Queens is fantastic.

I clicked on this out of bored curiosity and loved it, had to watch them all. I had a good few giggles all the way through, I loved the sign by the front door, I need one of them.

I love the way they actors can take the mick out of themselves but also be so relatable and tender at the same time. I agree it's fresh and raw that shines out amongst a bunch of predictable usual comedies. Whilst the actors were amazingly fab they did not overshadow the writing which was witty, and developed to showcase the humans, not a cause, not tricky humour, just humans being thier true and livable selves.

I hope there is a season two of these amazing queens.

Laugh-out-loud funny throughout. A contemporary take on life in a post-industrial northern town that will make you laugh 'til you cry, then cry 'til you laugh again. Charming, witty, ridiculous and heartwarming in equal measure. Whether you wear a dress at the weekend or a pair of overalls, there is something here for you. Both celebratory of our proud LGBTQ+ community and of the wider idiosyncrasies of Middlesbrough life; this show is a charming love letter to a much derided part of our country and the resilience, humour and creativity of the people who reside there.

Well written, acted and delivered. Season 2 please!!!

If only there was more!!! This show had me and the missus laughing our heads off from start to finish. Heartfelt and witty and portrays Middlesbrough perfectly. Each character is loveable and hysterical in their own ways making you want to be in this tight group of best friends. The writing is superb with many one-liners that I will continue to use. The highs and lows of life are honest and relatable making you appreciate each character individually. I hope I hope I hope there will be another series. I may be a Geordie but us northerners will always unite to support each other. I highly highly recommend this show.

Ok, so I'm a Smoggie too!! Maybe I'm a bit biased... absolutely love this show!! It's as daft as a brush and unapologetically Boro. In a troubled world this show is like a breath of fresh air! Really silly jokes, larger than life innuendo and really likeable characters. Hope there's a season two!!It's really nice to see the characters of our area celebrated instead of all the negativity which often surrounds a place like Middlesbrough. My favourite episode was the spoof on the Titanic!! Long live Mam , Dickie and their daft friends. I hope they make a return shortly for more over the top adventures!!
