Smokers have been urged to ditch the habit in a bid to deter the next generation from taking it up.

A new campaign by the NHS features doctors, former smokers and ex-footballers encouraging people to attempt to quit in January.

According to the Office for National Statistics there are 5.3 million adult smokers in the UK.

Former Liverpool and England goalkeeper David James is one of those who has shared his experiences.
