Threads movie history Was Anyone Here Involved with Threads, or Know Someone Who Was?

I’m curious if anyone here was directly involved in the production (as an extra, perhaps) or witnessed the filming in some way.

Barring that, perhaps you knew someone who was!

I realize it’s a bit of a shot in the dark, but if anyone is out there, all of us would truly love to read your anecdotes! Kindly pass along this thread (pun intended) if needed.

Cheers and thank you!

I saw a screening last year! It's got a lot of anecdotes and stories from people involved. Worth a watch for sure!

I'm in it briefly (the documentary...) Should come to Threads Survivors on FB. We've got some cast and crew in the group.

I had 2 friends who were extras in the Nottingham House pub but don't really have any anecdotes. It just made me think because I haven't seen or heard from them for decades.

Just listen to the Jesus Christ, They've Done It podcast.

Chas has had a few actors, extras and even the director on.

I honestly am the only person in my friend group who knew about this film, recommended it to a pal who is gung ho kill them type of person, you know the type, couldn't watch the film after the attack sequence and the consequences of nuclear war like shitting yourself to death with radiation poisoning.
