  • Old cigarette dispenser in a high street, Deal Kent. As a piece of bygone street fixture to a wall in this small town in south-eastern England, we see what used to be a common sight on Britain's streets, shops and pubs. Then, cigarette smoking was a national habit and before the changes of smoking in public laws by progressive governments who also banned the selling of tobacco anywhere, except in licensed premises. Yet somehow this old dispenser remains in place, a symbol of the way things were.

  • A bucket (pale) of smokers' cigarette butts have been extinguished in a London back street alleyway. Stubbed out in sand to prevent them reigniting for safety reasons, the fags (English slang for cigarettes) echo the steel pegs on the ground. A single packet is also in the bucket at the rear entrance of a London restaurant. Catering staff takes a break from long hours working inside and smoke. The UK government say each year smoking causes 80,000 deaths, costing the National Health Service (NHS) £2.7bn. Just 22% of Britons are smokers - down from 27% at the end of the 1990s - and two-thirds say they would like to give up.

The City of London is a major financial centre, often referred to as just the City or as the Square Mile, as it is approximately one square mile (2.6 km) in area. London Bridge's history stretches back to the first crossing over Roman Londinium, close to this site and subsequent wooden and stone bridges have helped modern London become a financial success.

  • The fishing fleet of Tarbert on Scotland's Mull of Kintyre lies moored at the dock of this pretty coastal village in the Western Isles. Their colourful hulls shine in late afternoon sunshine as they are tied up awaiting another outing at sea to provide for this small fishing community a living and a livelihood for its families. But in the foreground sit a young couple whose prospects are not so positive: they rest on a bench in silhouette, one smoking a cigarette while turned to the friend who stares out to distant rolling hills. It is a scene of hopelessness that reflects modern life for the youth in remote communities where jobs are scarce and their futures far from secure. In an otherwise idyllic Scottish landscape, we guess at the disintegration of society up here - the scourge of economic downturn and future social problems.
