Bitter Pubs - The Last Ashtray

The Last Ashtray is about a landlady who decides to keep all the ashtrays after the smoking ban and their fate from that point.

This short is written by Jack Murray. He started the Instagram account @bitterpubs at the start of 2021 when the pubs were closed, as a love letter to his favourite establishments. He's now written over 120 of them, and two have now been filmed (this one - #074, and #049: Purgatory).
