If "do the British" means the British in general, and the British in 2013, then no, not to my knowledge. 2010s writers like Mark Gatiss, with the hindsight of the mid-80s escalation, clearly places the end of the war at some point after the near-misses in 1984. I don't know about Dicks or Hulke or the production team in the 70s, mind.
