You can't really get anybody to quit smoking.
But you can let your best friend know that you really care about him and his health and that it hurts you to see him harming it with tobacco. He is harming it. And you can tell him that there are lots of kinds of help available for someone who wants to quit, including methods available through doctors.
You just can't do the wanting for him.

Or you can try giving them something else to be addicted to, chocs? consoles? gum?

The difficult aspect of giving that advice to a smoker, is that everyone has already heard that smoking is bad for their health. Every cigarette package carries a clear warning label. So you would not be telling them anything that they don't already know. Smokers are people who know that smoking is bad for them, and who smoke anyway. Therefore in most cases I wouldn't bother to say anything. But if I really cared about someone, I would tell them that whatever benefit they think they get from smoking, they will eventually discover that the price is too high, and by then it will be too late.
