This is a reupload of a video I made for the movie "Threads" from 1984, after I made some corrections I didn't catch the first time.

Ironically the real Sheffield town hall was destroyed and pulled down by the local government just a few years after building it. So they destroyed it before any real attack did! They used to waste material to fill in an under-pass road system they’d built 20 years or so before which was also deemed not needed despite rising traffic levels!

That's when it was screened. A year earlier the Americans produced their own version called The Day After. It should be remembered this was a pretty Febrile time, with the USSR going through a succession of leaders after Brezhnev died, with Andropov and Chernenko both dying after short periods in charge before Gorbachev emerged in 1986. We now know that only a Russian missile monitoring station commander judging an apparent missile launch by the US as a false alarm prevented a Soviet 'retaliatory' stroke in 1983. Those were pretty scary days.

The Cold War wasn't pushed. That was around 90-93, so we were in the Desert Storm and Panama phases, where we were pushing on past the Glasnost days and remerging former Soviet countries. Serbia was kicking off, and we had Central America and Somalia to worry about... That's one of the reasons why the Leftists grabbed as deep a foothold in Western society as they have.

I watched movies from the 50s in the 80s and 90s, they were old fashioned but the stories were fun. There's still dated stuff that I love, so I can see what the younger gens could see in this. Also the bomb effects from both movies look bad, Threads is actually the worst with people who should have been flashblinded, etc. It's actually the impact of the movies that are effective. They're very effective. I can see anyone curious about nukes watching them. There needs to be a modern version though since the lead up to the nukes is dated now. I hope if they do, they learn from the older movies for effectiveness and they've no excuse for no realism with bomb attacks.

5:37 - The thing about the scale of the Nuclear attack in _Threads_ which is perhaps the most unsettling of all is the sheer effort to which the USSR ensures complete and total destruction of the civilian population. While many nuclear war scenarios of this era showcase the attacking force targeting cities known to host military infrastructure, here there are scarcely any large settlements which aren’t obliterated, including those with no strategic role or purpose whatsoever. This attack wasn’t just about neutralising an enemy, but inflicting as much cruelty, terror and suffering as possible.

This is a useful addition to Threads, but it would be better if it wasn’t full of spelling, grammar, and military mistakes. They’re on almost every slide. For example, there is no US “10th Airborne Division” - the US Army’s rapid response force in that period was the 82nd Airborne division. Nuclear missile warheads were causing the damage in Britain, not “bombs”. Cleaning up these distractions would make the timeline more useful.

Essentially the BBC's answer to ABC's "The Day After," which played the year prior. I have to say, the captions in "Threads" gave a bit more of a scary prelude to the climax than the background news sound bytes used in "The Day After"; but for the respective climaxes, I prefer the older one's scene. Some argue that the worst feeling is to be suddenly fried by an exploding nuke. I disagree. Being in close proximity to a missile base and seeing multiple plumes of exhaust smoke rising fast into the sky, knowing exactly what that means and knowing you are helpless to stop what is coming, which you can predict within 10 to 30 minutes...that has to be the worst feeling. But both movies had their terrifying appeal to me, having me (and others of my generation, I'm sure) wondering what the world would be like when we were 30, and whether we'd still be around to see 30. So glad the Cold War is all over now. 😝

but Ireland would probably suffer from the radiation carried by the winds and the British refugees wanting to enter the country and famine because there was nuclear winter at a global level and the crops would die or not even grow(or worse, Ireland could also be targets of nuclear attacks, of the USSR like Austria and Switzerland because even though they are neutral they also have great ties with the European Union (which also has military protocols) and with NATO, being neutral does not mean that you will not be attacked by a military power ( the second world war is an example) so the unification of Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland (if it is not attacked and still exists and can withstand the refugees, the radiation being carried by the winds and the lack of crops) will not be worth a lot of things for the country, this territorial gain, would only cause more problems for Ireland than helping the only ones who would love this unification would be the IRA but I highly doubt that they still exist in this universe because if not even a powerful and centralized group like the UK couldn't handle it, just imagine a paramilitary group that is considered a terrorist group by both countries

Not to mention the film's fucking ending, which is essentially quiet. There's no music. The sound of the wind makes you understand that humankind in the picture is completely gone!

Chances are the government were evacuated during the last few hours to one of the control bunkers, assuming they got out of London in time, but would quickly have been obsolete. Who are you going to listen to - Thatcher, eighty miles away underground waiting for food and water to run out, or the traffic warden with the gun right next to you?

I remember recently, there was a story on some Excavated mine somewhere in the UK, which was meant to act as a huge COG bunker for the Royal family and UK leaders, housing 4000 personnel.

My interpretation is that local councils and governments become sort of like fiefdoms from feudal times, with the UK still existing on paper, but in reality local counties are the only polities with power, desperately trying to manage the situation as the central government is powerless. After a few decades, I think the UK government would gradually start to be rebuilt

All Putin, Biden have to do is get on the phone and say 'we've got to talk before we let things get out of hand and none of us'll have much of a Europe, USA, Russia, Ukraine, China or Taiwan left'. It can't that hard can it considering they're university graduates?

Just watched the video and to be honest I would think if the Irish republic had survived the winter it would be severely Authoritarian and probably couldn't take on the burden of the desecrated Northern Ireland

If the generation that came after was so badly mutated, it would probably mean that humanity is essentially doomed to a slow death. Average IQ declines due to increased rates of retardation, death rates are high due to rampant disease, lack of secure necessities like housing/food/water, and infighting. Birth rates decline due to radiation. This would mean that the surviving population probably wouldn't be able to produce enough offspring to create a net positive or at least stabilize the population at it's current rate. Within the next three generations, its likely that humanity will be extinct. The only hope humanity has of surviving would be in small communities of people far enough away from the fallout and radiation hotspots to be able to avoid the worst of the long term contaminations. However, there's still the question of whether or not the gene pool of those communities will be large enough to allow for a stable and healthy population to grow.

if Ireland does not collapse due to the large number of refugees, the radiation being carried by the winds (in fact there have been some nuclear attacks near the Irish border) and the lack of food because the world will have a nuclear winter and the crops will die or not even be born, apart from the panic and social disorder that will be in the country (or even worse, Ireland could be attacked by nuclear weapons from the USSR because even though Ireland is neutral it has good ties with the European Union and NATO, just like Finland,Austria,Switzerland and Sweden so for the Soviets these countries would be considered threats even if small and literally legitimate targets so Ireland got screwed a lot in this universe)

I can't remember the specifics, but the soviets did target a number of cities and ports in RoI in order to prevent any relief ships getting to NATO countries from the US.
