E171 - Bletchley Park and Bomber Command Part 2

The second part of our look at how the signals intelligence operation at Bletchley Park assisted RAF Bomber Command in completing their mission.

Podcast

E170 – Bletchley Park & Bomber Command Part 1

The crews of RAF Bomber Command had one of the most hazardous jobs of the war. Flying by night to their targets in occupied Europe, they were alone and vulnerable to the prowling German night-fighters.

Helping them reach their targets was one of the least-known, but most significant achievements of the signals intelligence operation at Bletchley Park.

Podcast

E169 - Learning the Ropes

Bletchley Park Historian Dr David Kenyon joins us in this month’s ‘It Happened Here’ episode, to explore the varied experiences of new recruits finding out how to do their job – sometimes on an organised course, sometimes learning on the job, and sometimes literally making it up themselves.

Podcast

E168 - Inside Hut 6

Hut 6 was the section at Bletchley Park which broke the German army and air force Enigma ciphers. Historical accounts usually focus on the early part of the war, when a small and inexperienced team was established in a newly-built wooden hut. But by 1944, Hut 6 looked very different. It was a hardened unit of several hundred people, supported by cutting-edge technology. Recent research into Bletchley Park’s unique collections has revealed more about how this vital section worked.

Podcast

E167 - The Forgotten Army

In early 1942 one of the most disastrous defeats of the war saw British forces pushed out of Burma, now known as Myanmar. Two years later, the multi-national Fourteenth Army, the ‘Forgotten Army’, had learned to fight and beat the Japanese, inflicting their largest defeat of the war at Imphal and Kohima, and was poised to begin the reconquest of Burma.

In this ‘It Happened Here’ episode, Research Officer Dr Thomas Cheetham leads us through the transformations at Bletchley Park, at signals intelligence centres in South-East Asia, and on the front lines, which turned defeat into victory.

Podcast

E166 - D-Day 80: Part 3 - Block D to Bocage

Bletchley Park made a vital contribution to the planning and preparation of D-Day, but the landings were only the beginning. There would be another three months of hard fighting in Normandy before the German forces finally cracked, and France could be liberated.

In this episode, Research Officer Dr Thomas Cheetham has delved into the detail of five turning points, to explore exactly how – and how far – Bletchley Park contributed to Allied victory in the Battle of Normandy.

Podcast

E165 - D-Day 80: Part 2 - Overlord

80 years ago, on 6 June 1944, more than 150,000 Allied troops were boarding planes, gliders and landing craft as they prepared to invade Fortress Europe in Operation Overlord, the Normandy Invasion. Meanwhile, 200 miles away in Bletchley the Codebreakers of GC&CS were also ready and waiting.
