Bletchley Park, home of the Codebreakers in Milton Keynes, will for the first time reveal its instrumental role in D-Day through an immersive cinematic experience, D-Day: Interception, Intelligence, Invasion. Based on newly declassified material, and the first in-depth analysis of Bletchley Park's role in D-Day since 1979, the exhibition shows how the intelligence produced here was integral to the invasion plans. The film unveils how, using sophisticated codebreaking techniques, workers at Bletchley Park fed crucial information to Allied forces in the critical months, weeks and days leading up to D-Day on 6 June 1944. On the day of the invasion itself, the Codebreakers were able to send on intelligence to front-line commanders in Normandy in less than three hours after intercepting an enemy message. For ages 8+.
