Biography (TMDB): From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.   Dame Celia Elizabeth Johnson DBE (18 December 1908 – 25 April 1982) was a British actress. She began her stage acting career in 1928, and subsequently achieved success in West End and Broadway productions. She also appeared in several films, including the romantic drama Brief Encounter (1945), for which she received a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Actress. She was nominated for BAFTA Awards on five occasions, and won twice, for her work in the film The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie (1969), and for the television production Mrs. Palfrey at the Claremont, a BBC Play for Today broadcast in 1973. Much of her later work was for television, and she continued performing in theatre for the rest of her life. She died suddenly from a stroke.

Brief Encounter

Johnson holds in two scenes, and smokes in two more, but her inhales don't look IRL
In Which We Serve

Wish I'd been paying more attention since I think there were a couple of other scenes too, but there was one scene in which Celia Johnson is smoking at a small Christmas dinner gathering about half way through the movie, nice inhale and exhale on what looks like a filterless cigarette. Another woman was smoking and sat next to her. On a train, Kay Walsh accepts a navy cut cigarette from her to be husband and lights it.
The Astonished Heart

Johnson takes a cigarette from a cigarette box and lights it with a match without inhaling. She also takes two drags later on - one with a nasal exhale. Leighton takes a cigarette from her cigarette case and accepts a light. She holds in a second scene at a party. She accepts a cigarette and a light during the interval at a play, but the director cuts away as she takes a second drag. In another scene she asks for a light. Finally, in a romantic silhouette scene, her lover puts a lit cigarette between her lips: she drags and then removes it to kiss him.
