    Spooky stories are fun, but it’s important to remember that they are nothing more than fiction. And anyone who has seen what they claim is a ghost are extremely ignorant of just how frequently human beings hallucinate, and how frequently our senses misinterpret things and momentarily create an image in our minds. For the record, I adore ghost stories, I actually collect them, particularly from the Victorian era. But I don’t for one second genuinely believe in ghosts. It’s fun to pretend, to even spook ourselves with ‘what if’?s. But extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, and so far we have less than no evidence for ghosts. None.

    Really good video as always. I’m fascinated by old nuclear bunkers. We really did think that the bomb would be dropped and we would all die back in the 70s and 80s. The fact we spent all this money on all these bunkers and the infrastructure for them shows we didn’t just take it as an idle threat. Since the 90s we have thought less about nuclear war and forgotten these amazing buildings so thanks for sharing

    I have never believed in ghosts or the supernatural, but there is one thing that has happened to me I cannot explain, as I was taking the tour in the vaults, I briefly saw to the right side of my eye, a man in a brown tweed suit and top hat, walking across the hallway far down very swiftly and he was very prim proper and straight as he walked. To this day I cant explain what that was, because it was too vivid to be a trick of light to me!

    Great video review of a great film. I do find Threads the best (imo) on this subject as its gritty and chilling. The American version "The Day After" is worth a watch but think it gives false hopes of society surviving to an extent afterwards and "Where the wind blows" is also great but focuses on just the couple not society as a whole. Really enjoying this channel, keep up the good work.

    The government were well aware that there was no way the majority would survive a nuclear way, things like "Protect and Survive" and the American "Duck and Cover" campaign were simply a way to try to reassure the public so they did not unduly worry about something they had no realistic way to avert or ameliorate.

  • @DogDooWinner
    @DogDooWinner Před měsícem

    The TV movie The Day After did come before it. The Day After did change US policy regarding nuclear weapons. Either way, I find both films to be an excellent warning that nuclear warfare should be avoided at all costs. I have seen the original showing of The Day After and can understand how President Reagan was moved by it. The presentation was it aired as a normal TV movie with commercial breaks and everything up to the point where the bombs drop. As soon as the bombs drop, they wanted to convey that life will not be the same. Not a single commercial interrupted the movie from that point forward. You have to understand that President Reagan, to that point, was willing to use nuclear weapons at the first sign of aggression. The film The Day After did kickstart the SDI program, AKA the Star Wars program. Policy shifted from one of offense to defense. The sentiment felt by the public was that while the soviets were mostly good people, the soviet government wasn't. I was alive at the time, so I feel like i can add what I saw to the conversation. Threads wasn't shown in the US until later on. I've watched and enjoyed both, well, enjoyed as much as one could. The settings are different in both films. Both films are complementary and a wake-up call to the public that if nuclear war happens, nobody wins. Excellent video.

    At the time I worked at an events company who were contracted by the Big Idea to handle PA for all the press conferences etc. So I knew about it from first plans, through to fruition. It was a fantastic idea and spent its first year or so fully booked out by regular School trips, for which it was really well set up. What killed it dead was the Glasgow Science Centre opening a few years later with a similar concept but about ten times the floor space and exhibit room. No real way to compete with that - and it was set up on a wholly different scale of funding. Real shame - it was a brief gem in the area and made superb use of an otherwise unusable area. When coming in to set up events there, there was so much security and rules about not straying off path, as it's a very closely monitored nature reserve - hence the design to make it disappear in the landscape and very very strict restrictions on infrastructure. Hence the parking off the peninsula and the bridge that could be opened up to avoid allowing scallys across it outside opening hours - all pretty clever. Real shame when it shut down.

    Such an interesting map at 0:51. St enoch station, Queen's dock and Princess' dock, no Kingston bridge and M8, Western infirmary...that's definitely a map of the subway when it just began its operation

      If you like old maps, the national library of Scotland have some on their website

      I think that map is from 1965... although it's not too different from the original map, which you can see here: maps.nls.uk/towns/rec/4269

      @@trainsarecool190 If you go to the "georeferenced maps" feature on the NLS website, you can compare lots of old maps with contemporary aerial views.

    2:04 _"But the kind of ugly that was very fashionable ... in the 1950s"._ Best description I've ever heard. Spot on! 😂

      The 1950s was certainly an interesting decade

      Well, fashionable for Architects and Town/City Councils certainly. Not so much the everyday chap in the street, whom had no say in the matter.

    You didn’t mention that it closes at 18:00 on a Sunday, it really has to move forward to the 21st century 😀

      Good point. Especially annoying as it ran late into the evening in the 1800s!

    the city has the a suburban rail network second only in size to london so the subway small as it is compliments the overall transport system of the city

      Glasgow's train connections are AMAZING, to be fair!
