Subtle always goes down well in the UK, but this might be a bit too subtle. I didn't get the punchline for a while.

I don't think smokers find it subtle. I was about to light that bed up.

I don't smoke filter tips, so I didn't get it until I read the comment above. The hospital bed looks plenty scary, though.

It is a great graphic. And I felt silly that I did not spot the cigarette straight away. Sticks in the mind long after i have seen the poster. Well done Dave and Ed. - Ash
