Spies who won the war
Apr 6 2008 by Ian Robson, Sunday Sun
SUE MACGREGOR interviews members of the famous Bletchley Park code-breakers in the first of a new series of The Reunion.
The group, charged with breaking German codes in World War Two, played a key part in winning the war. Winston Churchill called them: “The geese that laid the golden eggs, and never cackled.”
A surviving group recalls life at Bletchley Park in Milton Keynes all those years ago.
They remember the unquestioned code of silence, the long hours and hard work, and their elation as codes were broken and the information they yielded began to be of vital importance.
V THE REUNION, BBC Radio 4. Today, 11.15am.
