Dry dry dry throat

I just moved to university in London from somewhere much more humid, and now it's so dry that my throat is KILLING me. I know that not enough sleep and too much smoking and drinking probably didn't help, but does anyone know of any good remedies? I could barely sleep last night because breathing became quite painful. I've taken some panadol, which helped ease the pain, but I can still feel my throat is swollen...
