I read on DS that there was a picture of Lacey Turner celebrating her 18th birthday (in a paper) and she had a cigarette in her hand. I didn't know she smoked?! (but then again I don't really take much notice of actors private lives, I don't like to it spoils the way I look at the characters). But it got me thinking how many actors smoke compared to the amount of characters that smoke in EE?! And how many characters in EE compared to how many characters in Corrie?!

In Corrie when the smoking ban comes in (to stop people smoking in public places) they are having it in the Rovers, and residents are going to be up in arms about it (I read in an article). But how many people in EE would be if happened in the Vic?! I can only think of Dot and Pat that smoke, even Dennis gave up!

I think EE are giving an unrealistic view of how many people actually smoke. Stacey might be somebody who would smoke in real-life. Deano probably would be as well. I don't smoke, and I think it's right people should be giving up. But EE aren't portraying a realistic view of it.

Stacey once asked Dot for a drag of her fag in the soap, but I don't think she'd buy cigarettes out of her own money.

well if lacey wants to smoke its up to her,its not illegal,if her only vices are drinking,smoking and boyfriends,well she a lot more sensible than most of the cast,leticia dean ,nigel harmon,leslie granthem,jessie wallace have all admitted they enjoy a smoke,while they were in EE playing non smokers now needing a cig must be hell,if the only scandel the tabloids could find was lacey having a smoke,things must be improving at EE

i agree about the smoking, considering it is meant to be realistic no one smokes.
