Smoking Ban?!
Question:
Smoking Ban?
How do film makers get on when they have to film a scene with people smoking e.g a 60s scene when nearly everyone smoked...would they be breaking the law.

Answers:
There is an exemption for smoking during performances in the The Smoke-free (Exemptions and Vehicles) Regulations 2007. Section 6 of the regulations states that
"Where the artistic integrity of a performance makes it appropriate for a person who is taking part in that performance to smoke, the part of the premises in which that person performs is not smoke-free in relation to that person during his performance."
