The rest of the film shows the three men in different locations throwing empty cans into bins. Including:
Various locations in a park were the can is thrown from different positions (sitting, standing, and moving) into litter bins. Sometimes involving the men throwing the can to one another before it goes into the bin.
In a residential garden one of the men is sat on a raised patio and throws the can behind him and into a bin.
Sat at a desk in a bedroom a can is flicked from the desk and into a bin.
Jumping on a trampoline a can is thrown over head and lands in a bin behind him.
Sitting in a lounge watching television he throws a can over his head to a bin in the hallway.

Carola Stewart takes a humorous view of her mission to Keep Britain Tidy
Action description:
Carola dressed in black trousers, beige jumper and black hat walks along a pavement with her dog. She has a large black bag over her shoulder.
There are items of litter and some dog foul on the pavement.
Carola bends down and picks up the items of litter and puts them in a blue plastic carrier bag.
There is a close up of Carola’s face as she talks. She then spots the dog foul that has been left and talks to her dog as she picks the foul up in a clear plastic bag. She then places the two plastic bags into her black shoulder bag.
Carola is then seen inside sat at a piano, playing and singing.
Back on the street, Carola, dressed in beige jumper and black cycling style shorts, and white trainers jumps into the centre of a yellow, orange and green striped hula hoop that is lying on the pavement. She picks up the hula hoop and begins to spin it around her waist.
A man wearing jeans, black coat and a green scarf comes out of the building that Carola is stood next to, and speaks to her.
Carola turns to the camera and gives her phone number, which also appears on the screen.

What happened to Keep Britain Tidy?
Carola
I’m Carola Stewart and what I’d like to do, and what I’m good at are two different things. What I’d like to do is conduct an orchestra, write a really funny book and work in America. What I’m good at is picking up litter, giving parties and directing school plays.
Carola
Oh no, who did that? Not you Beelily I hope.
Carola
I’m on my way to my piano lesson I’m learning the yodelling yoderlich.
(Sings while playing the piano)
I laid aside hello magazine.
I folded up my specs.
Because I thought my goldfish
Might have heard the call of sex
But it hadn’t.
Carola
Finally my sex tip. Exercise. Going to the gym is boring. Whoo. Swing those hips ladies.
Man
Do you have to do that here?
