Starring Bob Peck, Joe Don Baker, Joanne Whalley and Charles Kay, the series was so popular on its first BBC2 transmission that it was immediately repeated on BBC1. Andy and Martin discuss how they feel this story of nuclear shenanigans stands up today and whether it truly deserves the accolades that have been heaped on it over the years. Get it while it's hot!
