Extra - E32 - Audrey Wind
January 2014
In this episode we bring you the entire interview we
recorded with Veteran Wren Bombe Operator, Audrey
Wind, who recalls how she was plucked from filthy
cleaning jobs in basic training & recruited to do a
very, very secret job.
Audrey was posted to Eastcote, an outstation of Bletchley
Park, where she operated Bombe machines. She says
“The pressure was enormous. It took me a long time
after the war to get over it and I’m sure it did for
everyone. It was terribly stressful.”
Audrey’s story will be featured as a DVD extra, when
the second series of the hit ITV drama, The Bletchley
Circle is released.
