              •  "My worst habit: Smoking. It's 20 a day. I gave up for two years when my mum got cancer, the worst thing was starting again. I got Soldier, Soldier and Jerome Flynn said: 'We could just smoke for the weekend'. By Monday I was back on 20 a day. It's such a social nightmare.

'My sister, Debbie, never started, but it's a very difficult thing to give up. I did stop when I was pregnant, and the drink, but I went to a Street hen night six weeks after the birth and started again. I only really smoke when I'm socialising like this. I never smoke in the house or around the children and can go days without having a cigarette at home. But I do want to give packing it in another crack'", Birmingham Evening Mail (UK), Aug. 18, '01

              •  "Her unorthodox health regime: 'It's pies, wine and fags for me' ", Daily Mail (Weekend magazine) (UK), Jan. 17, '04
              •  "I feel like a right hypocrite because I caught my fifteen-year-old son smoking recently and I was very disappointed. However, I'm afraid it's 'Do as I say' not 'Do as I do' in the family home. I always love a cigarette before going down the red carpet at a showbiz do. It can be quite daunting, wondering why people are waving, shouting your name and asking for autographs. One minute it seems I'm just a normal stay-at-home mum sorting out my youngest son's dinner or checking the eldest has done his homework. Next I'm being feted and treated like royalty. No matter how many times I go to a showbiz bash I don't think I'll ever get used to the adulation. Once, at a Children in Crisis charity event, I agreed to model a dress by designer Isabell Kristlansen, who was hosting the evening. I got to the venue, the exclusive Cafe Royal in London, and came face to face with the other models. An intimidating collection of gorgeous, leggy models with minuscule hips and tiny waists. One of them was Jerry Hall. Petrified doesn't come into it, and to make matters worse I was to model a £4,000 dress. No way would I have risked smoking in a gown like that. Everyone was so kind and I had a great time. But once the show was over that dress came off immediately and I went straight for a fag. Boy, did it taste good. Like everything, when you can't have it, the more you want it", "The Joy of Smoking" by Sue Carroll and Sue Brealey, '05

              •  "smoked using a holder in one elegant musical number, dressed glamorously. At one point the music stopped and, having just received a light from one or more tuxedoed admirers, she held the holder near her provocatively in a close-up and said 'I could get used to this!'", "At another point in the special, dressed like a Latin spitfire, she moved in close to another woman's man, took his cigarillo/tipped cigar, inhaled and exhaled quite well (and sort of into his face). Then the other woman came at her, Racquel gave her an unintentionally comic 'bring it on' look and a fight/dance number ensued.", musical special, mid to late 80's
  • Quotes about smoking
              •  "I've always thought of cigar smoking as a purly masculine pursuit and, since I cough and sputter every time I've tried, it's just as well. Having said that, I associate cigars more with the romantic world I was able to engage in through old movies. Cigars had a certain glamour: those smoke-filled casinos and oak-lined studies where the men would gather after dinner. Ah yes, it was a simpler time. And the allure of the old black-and-white film noir movies -- with that silver halo of smoke surrounding the lovers, that virile managed by some impossible adept, cigar-puffing leading man.", "I rather like the idea that the men had their smoking clubs or when, in the movies, they used to retire to another room for their cigars and brandy, leaving the women to their own devices. Men and women have always had very different pursuits, and although I do value my career and independence, I truthfully do not covet a man his cigar. I have my own pursuits that could bring a grown man to his knees. Though I like the pretense of occasionally hanging with the boys, I really and truly do not want to be one.", "A cigar can look quite dashing on some men and awfully rude and boastful on others, but that really depends on the guy. Gable, Bogey, John Hustonm Edward G., even Clint in those spaghetti Westerns -- boy, what's not to like? But now, thank you, Bill, there are all those lewinsky jokes. Who knew? Makes you nostalgic for the good old days when men were men and women were glad that they were.", Cigar Aficionado, Summer '01, p. 66
