I'm glad it's not just me that's noticed this. I thought it was targeted advertising because I also see lots of 'old people adverts' :) It's horrific really.

I change channels as soon as one of those adverts come on. Premier League football teams are sponsored by them, and I suppose F1 cars probably are as well. But not cigarettes. Then again, I've never seen cigarettes ruin an entire family and for them to end up in financial ruin and without a house. Someone else called them parasites, and they're not wrong.

In the US, your hypothetical mother who smokes and gets lung cancer could easily bankrupt the family and leave them in financial ruin (you know, if your family tries to pay for the treatments so she doesn't die). Oh yeah, we're talking about the UK here...carry on.
