Maybe it is really just a huge plume of black smoke, and we could all have a few, watch some telly and retire to bed.

Anyhow, I hope it is nothing serious.

It was nothing serious at all, much to the disapointment of the Great British Press.

That's hilarious, I can't figure out if you made it up or if it's actual, either is believable.
