Smoking ban....

We had a similar story a while back about Liverpool Council, but now Plymouth is in on the plans Films featuring smoking could be given 18 certificate in bid to stop children taking up habit http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/ar...ing-habit.html
Quote:
Russ Moody, manager of Plymouth NHS Stop Smoking Service, said: 'This is about shaping the culture that surrounds the use of tobacco.

'Once people understand why we are doing it, to protect young people and highlight the dangers associated with smoking, on the whole, most people are compliant.'

He added: 'The driving force behind the long-term strategy is protection of young people.
Love the bit about people being 'compliant'.

Looks like TH, if it gets made, will either not show smoking, or get an 18 certificate.

Mind you, if it can happen to Churchill http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...der-cigar.html what chance has Bilbo got?

Just waiting for the censors to get going on all those pics of Tollers with his pipe ....
