Dog returns from the dead in anti-drugs film

E-mail

The campaign advertisements, with a voiceover by Peep Show comedian David Mitchell, are targeted at 15- to 18-year-olds to make them more aware of the risks and harms of cocaine use.

Pablo, a dead dog, wakes up to find he's been used as a drug mule to smuggle cocaine into the country. In an attempt to find out what led to his death Pablo interviews key figures from the world of the drug - the dealer, the user, a bag of cocaine, a heart, a nostril and a bank note.

They highlight the addiction, heart attacks, personality changes, fear and violence involved in the process.

Sarah Graham, spokeswoman for the government drugs information service Frank said: "No animals were hurt in the creation of this ad - unlike in the cocaine trade.

"Some young people may perceive cocaine to be a harmless party drug but they don't realise the destruction it causes.

"Users can suffer serious harm to their mental and physical health, while the cocaine supply chain also harms people and the environment."
