Basic Mis-Intelligence [Monday, Period 2]
The Danger Shop theatre was nothing out of the ordinary today.
"Good morning," Bond greeted his class. "Now that we're done with Agent M for the moment, we're moving onto a British series revolving around former Bletchley codebreakers that touches on many of the same post-war issues, albeit in a more restrained way."
"Now to give some historical context, Bletchley Park was the central site for intercepting and decoding Axis transmissions, work that was vital to the war effort, and which required both great intelligence and great secrecy, as most of the vulnerabilities that they needed to crack these nigh-unbreakable codes were the result of procedural flaws and human error, that could have been corrected if the Axis had ever realised their codes had been broken. Hence the work at Bletchley was classified at the very highest level, not only during the war, but also for decades after."
