Episode description
March 2023
To celebrate World Poetry Day on the 21st of March, we have been looking into the poets and poetry of Bletchley Park.
We have chosen nine poems to feature in this episode; they are read by staff, volunteers and Bletchley Park Veterans.
Exhibitions Manager, Erica Munro and Research Officer, Dr Thomas Cheetham have been digging into the archives to give us more information as we listen.
Thanks to all our readers for their time and fantastic performances.
A special thank you to the Watkins family for the wonderful recording of their mother, Gwen Watkins.
