About this listen
What happens when a nation convinces itself that the end of the world is survivable? In this episode we unpack The War Game, the BBC film banned for showing too much truth. As Britain adjusted to its fading role on the world stage, Cold War officials reassured the public that nuclear war could be managed, that civil defence, shelters and stiff upper lips would somehow be enough. But beneath the propaganda was a terrifying reality few were allowed to see. We explore the fragile myths of survival, the politics of censorship and the quiet horror lurking beneath Britain's Cold War delusion.
