      Turn off your phone, sit down and watch it. Live the lives of the everyday grey people, become them. Don’t watch it as an action movie just waiting for the big bang, that is not what the film is about.

      Also remember that is a world that at any time was only a few minutes away, but being British we just had a cup of tea and got on with it.

      In an urban society, everything connects.
      Each person’s needs are fed by the skills of many others.
      Our lives are woven together in a fabric.
      But the connections that make society strong, also make it vulnerable.

      Nope I’ve already had my lifetime allotment of 1 viewing of Threads, thanks.

      No. There’s nothing I want to see in that film. I’m grateful for its role in showing the UK how prepared the UK was for a nuclear holocaust.

      I grew up next to HMS Warrior/Northwood Headquarters. When I saw this film my parents just said not to worry, when the warning happens we’ll stand in the garden and not feel a thing. That didn’t help surprisingly.

      Threads convinced me that it is better to just die immediately than try to persist following a nuclear attack.

      I have heard so much about this… through secondary sources, but have never seen it.

      Time for a new generation to feel their first taste of existential dread.

    11. Perudur1984 on

      We are closer to this now than we were in 1984 when this was made. As a child of the 80s, we grew up under the spectre of the bomb and the horrors of nuclear war were well known at least to older teens. There were government pamphlets and adverts about what to do if we were attacked. Since then, we’ve had a couple of generations that haven’t known or understood the power of nuclear weapons through not being exposed to media like this. I see so many comments about nuking this or bombing that….time for a modern Threads remake I think.

      Something tells me I probably shouldn’t watch this given I have a 2 year old and I seem to be about 10,000% softer than pre toddler.

    13. tiatamago on

      My birthday has already been depressing enough without rewatching this so. Think I’ll pass

    14. WynterRayne on

      I won’t be able to watch it all. Will it go on iPlayer? Some of us have work in the week

    15. LadyMirkwood on

      I have a grim fascination with ‘Threads’ as Nuclear War history is a pet subject of mine.

      I’ve seen it more times than is probably advisable and I am really looking forward to the documentary on later.

    16. GhostRiders on

      No, no, no, no, no, no absolutely no…

      Was made to watch it at school as a kid and by kid I mean I was about 8 yrs old, scared the living shit out of me.. Still remember the woman wetting herself and the people trapped underground in the Government shelter thing..

      I swear Threads traumatised an entire generation

    18. Magurndy on

      I do really want to watch this, I have a special interest in nuclear incidents etc but… I also have a brain that gets obsessively worried about weird things and I just know if I watch it, I will be having nightmares or horrible thoughts for weeks….

      This is my go to film when I’m feeling down.

      Nothing seems quite as bad afterwards. 

    20. leclercwitch on

      Watched half of it a few years ago on YouTube. Then it took me ages to find it again, “nuclear attack on Sheffield film” never turned anything up, then I saw it again, all the way through, this year.

      Absolutely harrowing. Please watch this.

    21. Glass_Box_6291 on

      Seen it when I was a kid, a member of the family had recorded it on an old VHS.

      Never again. It sits up there in a long list of I’ll never watch that again for the sake of my own sanity.

    22. ernestschlumple on

      good timing with WW3 potentially just round the corner – hope everyone is taking notes

    23. LicenseToShill on

      Not sure whether to watch the director’s introduction 20 mins before. Probably not. Anyway thanks for posting this to this sub.

    25. merryman1 on

      I’ve realized I kind of miss having scheduled programing like this. Actually getting a bit of excitement waiting for something I’m interested in watching come on live.

    26. Alex_Zoid on

      They nuked Sheffield, somehow it doesn’t look like anything’s changed.
