On Monday 7th September,  I watched a BBC2 documentary on Bletchley Park.  Whilst there were a few mentions of cryptography, the main focus was Gordan Welchman and his contribution to WWII traffic analysis and the development of the internet and, consequently, his later downfall when, like Alan Turing, Welchman was deemed a security risk and was discredited by the government.  Interesting to watch, but not entirely relevant to my EPQ.
