Visit to Bletchley Park and Afternoon Tea for Two

Posted on

The Imitation Game is an incredible film;  it tells the story of Alan Turing, Bill Tutte and the people there, working flat out around the clock to break the Enigma code at Bletchley Park, in Buckinghamshire.

Bletchley Park was a top-secret location, vital to the Second World War effort.  Here the codebreakers helped to turn the tide of the Second World War.
