- A short video showing what it might've looked like on BBC One if a nuclear attack occurred against the UK during the early 1970s. This is a fake video that is NOT genuine at all and I am not affiliated with the British Broadcasting Corporation in any way.

How is this my most viewed video?
For reference, this is hilariously inaccurate and I put this together in one night. Back then, in the event of a real nuclear emergency, it is most likely that apart from a (very) brief message, television would either play Protect and Survive films or go off the air immediately.
This is because according to an article by Subterranea Britannica, "television would not be used as it was thought that it would divert people away from the vital national message to be carried by radio and would not be available after the attack."
Hope you all enjoyed watching anyway!
To be fair it wouldn't have been protect and survive as that was '80s. But it would've been the equivalent from before.
I disliked it, given your "feedback" on your own video. Cheers!
'Normal programming has been permanently suspended' was the most chilling part of this for me...
Ikr. Especially the word "permanently".
I don’t think that really makes sense because suspension is temporary
The fallout would smother life on the earth like it was rapped in a death blanket. Would not matter much were in the northern hemisphere you are, death will come. So long as many of the H bombs detonate, the fallout will block out the sun and poison almost everywhere.
I highly recommend pissing yourself followed by a course of praying to your impotent god. Whatever that soon to be forgotten god is. Afterwards no one will be alive to judge you.
The zombie alert is another good one.
@@EASY_Scenarios Discontinued would be better for that line.
Why would programming be permanently suspended instead of temporarily?
"How we doing for time ?"
"We died forty-five seconds ago!"
Only fools and horses
The fact that I get the reference too 😅
We forgot Grandad...
Wayne turn that bloody siren off !!!
Have you been on the funny fags again, Rodney?
One minute to panic, one minute to prepare, one minute to call your loved ones, one minute to wait.
And this announcement was 3 minutes long.....
Nah 1 min to call family/friends 3 mins to think about stuff you have done and wait for death because death is immanent and you only survive this just to die later anyway

I work in broadcasting. I've been trained in how to deal with this kind of thing. What scares me the most is the calmness of the announcer. Clearly pre-recorded. Nobody could do that live and not crack.
You are absolutely correct in real life, this is a scenario, but you are correct about this and of course this is a recording.
This is not pre-recorded, this is text to speech.
@@eff7221 Yes. I grok. Sill, very unnerving.
Yeah i am really bothered about leaving the gas and electric on when i'm just about to be blown into atoms.
Here in the USA, it would be eerie to hear The Star Spangled Banner being played over the sounds of air raid sirens going off in the distance. The Emergency Broadcast System would interrupt programming with an Emergency Action Notification of a national emergency along with the attack warning, then if the station is a non-participating national EBS station then the station would sign off.
Emergency Alert System is what you were shooting for, cowboy. EBS phased out in 1997.
There would be no warning for the general public in the United States. It would just create chaos and panic. It's better to just let the general public get u unexpectedly vaporized or just blown to bits. It's for their own good.
No shit, it'd be eerie for any country's national anthem to be heard over air raid sirens in that country.
The final death throws of a nation.

You Brits would be awesome enough to play something like "Always look on the Bright side of life" when the end comes. Here in the states it'd be something maudlin
Watch the Threads, the most realistic nuclear war movie.
Me and my father used to watch that movie going way way way back.
Or its American counterpart, The Day After.
Teachers should put Threads at schools, not matter, where. Maybe we should put this to Putin, huh?
Threads destroys the American alternative.
Threads shook me to my core. Holy hell
The national anthem playing over the sirens was eerie
I love that classic BBC1 style! They never should have given up the globe.

We had to because we were broke. 2 world wars (benefitting America immensely) and an empire that wasn't paying its way since tge 1860's made certain of that.

Nice to hear God Save the King as the world ends
In some cases people could still have taken shelter in the nearest underground public toilet. Had a nuclear attack occured in the seventies, many city centres had these places to run to.
By the eighties just going into one of those toilets was like enduring a nuclear attack.
But would have surprised the hell out of George Michael though...

The other day I thought I was in the public lavatory but it turned out to be Rotherham town centre.
It's all fun to watch untill you take off your headphones and still hear Sirens😂
Instead of “permanently suspended”, it should be “suspended indefinitely”. Suspension isn’t permanent.
I'm watching this home alone, at nighttime, while doing my homework. I'm probably gonna have nightmares tonight.
Did you have nightmares?
@@adayinthelifeofanorthkorea Not really.
I'm pretty sure that if a nuclear attack were to occur on the United Kingdom, it would be after several weeks or months of conventional war. Instead of an astronomy show, BBC One would be playing "Protect & Survive" 24/7 until the bitter end.
That's not how it would have played out in 1983 during the Able Archer crisis - USSR was ready to go straight to nuclear attack
That's usually what was planned on. However, if there had a blitz across East Germany without warning, and it was strong enough to initially overwhelm NATO forces, a tactical nuclear strike would have been initiated, and would likely lead to a strategic escalation within days, if not hours. Though it may have been enough time for the BBC to swap over to emergency broadcasting before the four minutes.
@@KitCurranRadioShowOr their false alarm incident where literally one man judged whether or not to make the call
The Protect and Survive handbook and films were not produced until 1979-1980. Moreover, the Beeb would have had an actual human being read the message, rather than a digital voice.

OMG! Lost Voice Guy does the 4 minute warning! Great video though :)
He sounds like a bedtime story presenter
By Jove, he makes it sound so formal. Good show lad! Stiff upper lip what!
There'll always be an England. Oh wait .....
Now go watch the Vulcans scramble in response.
Think they had been replaced by the early 70s by ICBMs?
Those things were barely airworthy by the time of the Falklands conflict in '82. I have read accounts of parts being scavenged from scrap dumps to keep them going. Imagine that if the Cold War had gone hot?
@@iana6713 a museum I used to work at had the RAF visit and take the refuelling probe from their recently donated Vulcan and only through persistence by the museum management did they not take the Vulcan back into service after giving it to a museum! (this was at the very beginning of the Falklands conflict)
what does star trek have to do with this?
That's way too long. Today it would just be your phone yelling at you to "RUUUUUUUUUUUN BIIIIISSSHHH"
This is well-made!
A national broadcaster won't say "normal programming has been permanently suspended". They will just say it's "suspended during this crisis" and that news & information will still be broadcast on TV & radio.
If the incoming fireworks are few and small, the Govt. will need the Beeb to resume and keep the populace informed.
Being British, they wouldn't call it a 'crisis' either. Probably an 'event' or 'scenario'. At least in the 80's when this is set.
@@dcarbs2979
I've just re-read "when the wind blows" to clarify things. OK it's not an authentic source but it's all I have.
I learnt one thing... in the 4 minute warning, the Beeb won't be making the populace linger around... whatever they say will be brief and very too the point... as there'll be nobody listening to any second line.

What’s the name of the siren that plays in these old warnings same with the protect and survive series since I really like that sound of them sirens
Wow, I was convinced, this seemed totally real!
@@JesuIsTheOnlyWayToSalvation it says “mock” in the fucking title lmao
Yesh as other commenters have said, they’d really be showing Protect and Survive if war was imminent, but it’s a cool video!
World War 3 would break out during my favourite programme, The Sky At Night.
I have accepted my inevitable fate... As a bed-sitting room.
The Queen would have put all the Corgis into the most solid looking royal coach.😂
this feels so real in the uk
What's the episode title for The Sky At Night? Been trying to find it
This is what I most feared growing up. now the younger generations fear is that little yellow triangle!
Yellow triangle - not my nightmare
Yeah, it was always "When" not "If" there was a nuclear war. It's no wonder society has turned out the way it has.
What triangle are you talking about? I dont get it :(

I was present for a nuclear attack alarm going off, thanks to a squirrel shorting some wires. You might be surprised how calm and disciplined people were, until we found out it was a false alarm and everyone fell to bits!
One minute to get pissed.
Challenge accepted. Hold my beer...

Me: I’m littely gonna die
I can't believe you used the robotic voice, rather than Peter Donaldson's pre-recorded message. An Actor would be more period correct.Also, they'd cut right into the warning message.
Also, there wouldn't be enough time to play the anthem. They could start the vinyl, but before you can say "God save our gracious Queen, " the EMP would short that out, alongside transmitters and tellies.
Also, four minute warnings can be useless, as the warhead can hit in 3 or 2 minutes.
Is there actually a full version of the warning message (not the post-attack message) available online anywhere?
@@diggledoggle4192 Good question, but the warning message hasn’t been published. Any accidental or malicious playback and transmission of it could create a mass panic, even in jest.
@@chrishenniker5944 I heard an excerpt from a video about Peter Donaldson (which you also commented on). I suppose there is no warning system in place these days and the contents of the message are quite outdated, but still believable
@@diggledoggle4192 You’re right, they’re dated. Geopolitics has changed since the messages were recorded.
Plot twist:
The sort of thing happened in an alternate history in 1970 ,except the BBC1 COLOUR test card was on the air for 3 days until Monday 11th May and the WBS service was introduced on black screen ,not on the ident which closed down with sirens and the national anthem. WW3 began soon after and the democratic side (Led by USA ,and having other countries susch as India ,Mozambique ,Kenya ,Nigeria ,Thailand and Indonesia to name but a few) won the war with the USSR being divided amongst the victorius powers such as Britian (Capital Salekhrad) ,USA (Capital Yekaterinburg) ,Unified Germany (Capital Smolensk) ,France (Capital St.Petersburg) ,and Italy (Capital Irtutsk)
Did it really happen?
Because it wasn't world War 3. that didn't happen just yet. I think this was during the cold war.
Imagine hearing this at 3 AM
Just sleep through it, it’ll be over soon
The time of these graphics, the BBC wouldn’t have been broadcasting tv at 3 am
I have just watched "Threads".
"When you hear the air attack warning you and your family must stay inside."😅
The heavens declare the glory of the Bomb, and the firmament showeth Its handiwork. Glory be to the Bomb, and to the Holy Fallout. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be.

Thats how we would do it in the us too most likely

Chilling.
Why did they not play protect and survive instructions
They were classified until the 1980's and even then not officially released, but used as set dressing in the 1984 docudrama "Treads." It wasn't until the 21st century that the full series came out on home media.
"The powers that be will get to us in the end."

Sorry....was distracted by the horrible turning globe. God, I remember that. Then this. Problem is the end of it the whole thing sounds like a celebration??!!
Relax and be happy. Keep calm and carry on. As well as our program, your life and the lives of your loved ones have been suspended forever. But don't worry God is in control. Now please stand up for the national anthem - cheerio! Now remember don't panic!!
It's lost voice guy.

So, when the attack is over, will this episode of "The Sky At Night" be re-broadcast?
Don't worry, its inevitable .
