Description: Iguanas in an empty swimming pool. A helicopter flies over a desert, the helicopter is carrying a large rectangular box. The swimming pool starts to fill. Iguana looks nervous. The helicopter flies just above desert road. We see the shadow of the helicopter on rocks and a snake hissing. Some venetian style blinds open, a camera is behind them. The helicopter appears above the pool, it drops the box into the water, an iguana swims away. A scuba diver appears in the pool carrying a large sardine can type key. The diver uses the key to open the box which we can now see is a large pack of B&H Special Filter cigarettes. The camera pans back from the opened 'sardine can' pack of cigarettes to reveal the image is on a large billboard near to Battersea Power Station.
