'Fag' meant cigarette in Britain. 'Faggot' literally means tube or stick, and 'faggots' used to mean a bundle of sticks tied together as kindling for a fire. The word was also rhyming slang for 'hag,' which was often used as a comic term of abuse on TV and children's comic books. The first usage of 'faggot' to mean faggot was noted in the USA back in the late 19th century.
