The following comment was left on the Pebble Mill Facebook group:

Keith Brook: ‘Ah, Brothers.

My ‘roll your own’ cigarettes, in brown Rizla papers, featured heavily in the series when Hilary Tindall smoked them in a sophisticated way.
I had to make them fatter to look like imported ciggies. Fair play to the girl, she wasn’t a smoker, but she inhaled my super strong, no filter tip, Old Holborn masterpieces.

The whole series cost me a fortune!!’

Mainly because of the retakes cause by Paddy O’Connell, which required another hastily make one.
