Jack Nicholson Lights Up In London

Jack Nicholson Lights Up In London
By Hazel Tyldesley
Jack Nicholson was treated as being "above the law" as he puffed away in a London hotel without being challenged, anti-smoking campaigners have said.

The veteran actor was promoting his new film at a conference in Claridge's when he took questions with a lit cigarette in his hand.

Nobody stepped in to stop the Hollywood A-lister, despite the fact Claridge's is by law a smoke-free venue.

According to the star's agent, hotel staff had given him permission to smoke at their discretion.

But anti-smoking lobby group Ash says this would have been illegal and added that "nobody is above the law".
