'Threads' (1984) vs 'The Day After' (1983) - an in-depth analysis

Over the course of 60 mins we take you back in time to the early 1980's when the very real threat of global destruction by nuclear weapons produced two brilliant and very distinct television movies covering the subject; 1983's 'The Day After', produced by ABC and directed by Nick Meyer (yes 'Wrath of Khan' Nick Meyer), and 1984's 'Threads', produced by BBC and directed by Mick Jackson (who also made another of my favourite TV movies 'Indictment: The McMartin Trial' from 1995).

One of these films shows a fictional depiction of a nuclear holocaust. The other film IS the nuclear holocaust. As I say on the show, you will see some very disturbing and unpleasant images during this show and viewer discretion is advised.
