Do not consume water, as this only aids the enemy. Water should be saved for the production of steel.

14 days has nothing to do about going shopping; in 14 days, a) the peak of radiation from fallout will have passed; and b) the people who are critically injured or who received a large dose of radiation (and whom scarce food/resources would be wasted on) will be dead, but those who would have a chance won't have starved to death. Yet. Unrealistic? It's brutally pragmatic.

@Pictor100 Agreed. Also, while it's fairly obvious now (and to an extent, then) how brutally ineffective a lot of this stuff would be, the mere fact that it gave people something to DO would have helped. People sometimes panic less when they feel they have tasks to complete (especially if those tasks, however useless, provide them with even the slightest hope). This would in theory reduce overall public panic.

The way I interpret the jingle is that it's a representation of three things. The first part of the jingle is a warning sound; the second is an auditory representation of people scurrying to shelter (all the while saying, "Oh fuck, oh fuck, oh fuck, we're all fucked now" to themselves), and the last bit (a much softer sound) represents the security and safety of a shelter.
I've always found that jingle to be spine-chillingly creepy too. But I guess it's meant to be.

@Pictor100 Threads depicts how people ignored these instructions and the consequences of it.

The water may be contaminated with fallout, but no water is too dangerous to flush down urine and feces.

the end gingle is creepy..between the mushroom cloud start the start and the end, i think people will get the point of just how fucked they are. way to insight panic england. ms thatcher probably wrote and directed them herself.

The water can be reused again and again.
Oh yeah and put a hole in the can.

Nuclear Radioactive Fallout Survival Techniques.by NODDINGCAT42,739 views
Gotta love the ending comment where the announcer says quite emphatically, "Water is LIFE. SAVE IT." Talk about being unequivocally blunt.
Although I question how effective these commercials would have been in a real nuclear attack situation, I have to give the producers - and the UK government - for at least having tried. They're clear, easy to understand and quite effective (brutally so) at getting the message across.
At the same time, they don't hold out any Pollyanna-ish hopes either.

I love the conclusion: "Water is life. SAVE IT!"
