If you live in the UK, tomorrow night at 10:20, BBC 4 will broadcast the grim and harrowing anti-nuclear war drama “Threads,” preceded at 10:00pm by a retrospective interview with director and producer Mick Jackson to mark the unforgettable film’s 40th anniversary.

Wonder if he'll explain whatever happened to that THREADS sequel.
