Business Studies / Modern Studies: The film appears humourously shocking to modern audiences because of the negative image cigarettes have. But have times really changed? What modern examples can you find of sports stars endorsing products which may be dangerous to health (e.g. high-fat food and high-sugar drinks?) Research how, for example, football replica shirts are made, what ethical issues are raised? Look at who the official sponsors are for the 2012 Olympics.
PSE: How have perceptions of smoking changed over time? Compare posters advertising cigarettes from the 1950s with modern NHS anti-smoking adverts.
Media Studies / Computer Studies: Download the film, strip out the existing sound, re-edit the footage and add an alternative narration to turn this from a smoking advert into a public information film about the dangers of smoking. You may also want to add your own artwork, clips from other films or stills from the internet.
Biology / PSE / Health and Wellbeing: Use this film as a starting point to discuss attitudes to smoking and to investigate the dangers of smoking. How exactly does smoking harm your health, why do people become addicted, and are there any other non-medical drawbacks to this particular habit.
