June 17, 2013 Extra - E23 - From Bletchley to GCHQ Part 1
June 2013
Bletchley Park as you know was the home of code breaking during WW2, its official title being the Government Code and Cypher School. After the war this became, as it’s still known now, GCHQ. First based in Eastcote, but in 1951 moving to its current home of Cheltenham.
BBC Radio Gloucestershire recently ran a series of short programs in Anna Kings daily show about both establishments and have kindly said we can share them here with our Podcast Listeners.
Many thanks to BBC Radio Gloucestershire, Anna King & Manpreet Mellhi.
