Funny how habbits change over the years, can you imagine the looks we would get today.

Interesting note on the different classes partaking of different tobacco in different ways. Mate reckons snuff was a working class only thing, anyone know if he is right?

Snuff was an upper class gentlemans habit in the 18 &19th centuries. It was pretty commonly used because it helped get rid of the smell from lack of sanitation in streets.

officer Pitman was a pipe smoker, and his pipe may have been recovered from the wreck, intresting to know what brand of tobacco he and his officers smoked
got a gut feeling may of been a brand coming from ireland.

He did last night flicking through the channels got a glimpse of mr selfridge being offered a cigar.

Yep...3rd series....I love the style of it too.
Also watched 'The man with the golden gun' yesterday, Roger Moore had a few cigars in that.

Any members like watching films where there are pipe and cigar scenes in them.
Watched a documentry tonight on titanic showing first class passengers smoking cigars, and the captain smoking a pipe.
Wonder what cigars first class passengers smoked cuban or non cuban, and the brand of pipe tobacco the captain smoked.

This could be a thread for spotting cigar and pipe scenes and trying to name them?

I remember watching The Game not long ago and there is heaps of cigar smoking going on in that film!
