Seconded.

Were the hydraulics actually depressurised or had you only just turned the pumps off - meaning there was residual pressure? There are probably accumulators in the system - to improve control and smooth out pump responses - that pilots are not told about.

Yellow or Green hydraulic power is needed to move the THS,
Yellow or Green or Blue for the rudder.
