Dr. Sherman Cottle (Donnelly Rhodes) is the Battlestar Galactica’s chief medical officer. He is portrayed as a heavy smoker.
From Battlestar Galactica (2004):
Doctor Cottle: You are obviously an intelligent, well-educated young woman. Would you mind explaining to me why you waited five years in-between breast exams?
President Laura Roslin: Yes, I would mind. It’s none of your business. I was busy.
Doctor Cottle: And now here you are. [lighting a cigarette]
President Laura Roslin: Yes, here we are…would you mind? [indicating displeasure at his smoking]
Doctor Cottle: I do, actually. [continuing to smoke]

- You’ve done much more than that. You’ve taken a patient who should’ve died years ago, and you’ve given her a chance. Despite cancer and the Cylons, and her own obstinate nature…You have my heartfelt gratitude and my thanks.
