Lol - I suppose so but he was hardly a household name in the UK - I don't get the prominence?
Don't worry, when you die, I'll make sure you get one too, you'll die first anyway, 'cos you're older.

There is! I know it's old, but old is generally better, there's -alot- of bullshit on Netflix.

I'm also a sucker for a good post apocalyptic film.

Yeah I cancelled my Netflix sub, ran out of things to watch after a month.

When I was at school one of my teachers led us all into the tv room and made us sit down and watch Threads, she said it was something we all need to see and know about. When I was a kid this kind of thing used to scare the living shit out of me, so I refused to watch it and walked out of the room.

She gave me detention, which that day was being staffed by the deputy head, when he asked me why I was there he went mad, sent me home and the next day he made the teacher apologize to me

They should make every world leader watch it before handing them the keys to the nukes.

No one is stupid enough to give the real nuke keys to leaders - hell they probably all lost the keys decades ago but are too embarassed to admit it :p

Well, it may be apocryphal, but they do reckon Ronald Reagan was inspired to push through the SALT II talks and better détente with the Soviets after watching The Day After (American 80s TV special similar to Threads)

Didn't know that "on the dole" saying was used as early as the 40s. Seemed like a rather new term.

Aye, but it wasn't a derogatory term, it was the 'dole queue' where people waited for ages to get their pennies.

The iPad is the headline because it looks like a government commission spent ages and loads of money saying how you could use iPads and save £2bn a year or something. But then they were removed as a security threat. So the project was a total waste of money. But I think they are right, give some idiot minister and iPad and he will let his kids play with it and you never know what will end up on it. Any other tablet is the same.

Watching this video I am 99% sure I would be arrested at one of her concerts. I do not care how many security people there are I am going to try and bite her backside when she is swaying from side to side.

She's just a normal, average looking girl. Your head would explode in any other country where the average female looks kinda like that.
