I’m Chas Newkey-Burden and when I watched the nuclear war film Threads in 1984 at the age of 11 it terrified me and changed my life forever.

I started this podcast to speak to other people whose lives have been changed by Threads, from cast and crew members, to extras, broadcasters, authors and super fans.

Welcome, to Jesus Christ, They’ve Done it.

This week I interview Dave and Pank, the hosts of the brilliant podcast “Bang! 101 Songs about Nuclear War from the 1980s.” They talk about how Threads influenced the 1980s music scene, which moments scared them most and which character they’d be in the film. Give their pod a listen - you’ll love it!
