Hello everybody, welcome, welcome to Dan Snow's History Hit.

Once a week we dig back into the archive and we find an old episode from years ago that

most of you went to heard and we hope you might enjoy.

This is an interview I did with Sue Black.

She's a British computer scientist, academic entrepreneur, all sorts of amazing things.

She's instrumental in having saved bletchly park the site of second world war code breaking

that you all know about where Nigma was broken by people at Alan Shurring among others.

This week Facebook announced a large donation of money to help save bletchly through and

beyond the COVID crisis and previously when bletchly was in danger of closing or being lost

to the nation, Sue Black stepped in and helped launch a national campaign to raise awareness

and money.

She's an inspirational remarkable person so this is my interview with her from 2016.

You can go onto History Hit TV, it's my digital history channel, it's like Netflix

History and watch several documentaries on there about bletchly park.

We got people that served there, we got tours around there, we got a description of the

Nigma machine and the primitive bomb, proto computer that helped break the German codes.

That's all there on History Hit TV, there's some of the most popular documentaries they've

made on there actually.

So please go and check that out.

So go and check that out after listening to Sue Black.
