The National Museum of Computing at Bletchley Park & the volunteers that run them are superb! It's so wonderful to see working (replicas) of Alan Turing's Bombe, Bill Tutte's Tunny machine & Heath Robinson.. and of course Tommy Flower's COLOSSUS.

I’m in Liverpool for work and popped up a day early (despite the football) to go to the Western Approaches museum. My Great Grandfather George Philip Grieve was sunk in December 1940 by U101 in the Atlantic….

Ep 12: Q&A - the Finale of Series 1 of The Forgotten War Pod is out now! Rob and Jack dive into all sorts of nooks and crannies of the Burma Campaign, for example the impact of the 18th British Division if it had gone to Rangoon instead of Singapore in 1942?
