I love documentaries made like this, narrated, historical footage, no talking heads repeating what the narrator just said, no contemporary investigative “reality tv” interrupting the flow, just old fashion documentary, perfect.
-
The invention of radar was truly a remarkable invention.
-
"It would have been faster for a German Commander to ring Bletchly to get his orders" is one of the funniest lines I've heard in a long time. Love British humour.

London Heathrow: Border Controll Officer asks: "Occupation?" German tourist answers: "No, just visiting."

When I was in the US Navy I was stationed at RAF Edzell. I lived in Brechin on a street named after Watson-Watt.

Beautiful quality . Well done Thanks .

There is one reason why we germans did not invade Britain. We did not have the capacity to do so. We lacked the transport capacity and the naval strenght to block the channel. We could not have used "little ships" to invade Britain cause the little ships could not transport heavy equipment and therefore an invasion was an illusionary plan.
-
It was informative and wonderful historical coverage video about that matter.
-
I've always known about Bletchley Park's part in the cracking of the Enigma code, but never known about the brilliant, essential Polish groundwork which provided the foundation for that achievement. Fantastic, all of you.

Some historians, such as David Holland, state that the RAF actually had more than 700 fighters as of August 1940. England was also significantly out producing Germany in fighters. Under Lord Beaverbrook, they also developed an excellent fighter repair program. Dowding was actually more worried about the number of rested and healthy pilots than about the number of RAF fighters.
