Bill Tutte's role in the programming of the worlds first digital computer - kept Top Secret until recently. It is said Bill Tutte and Tommy Flowers shortened WWII by 2 years
Code-Breakers: Bletchley Park's Lost Heroes - BBC Two.
The story of Bill Tutte and Tommy Flowers. The two mystery men who uncovered Hitler's secret code and helped win WW2, then disappeared from history.
During his time at Bletchley Park, Captain Roberts came into contact with several brilliant men. He says, in the great successes of Bletchley Park, three men played key roles. Alan Turing (who possibly saved Britain by breaking naval Enigma in 1941), Bill Tutte (who broke the Tunny cipher-system, helping to shorten the war, as Gen. Eisenhower said: Bletchley decrypts shorten the war by at least two years) and Tommy Flowers (who designed and built Colossus, the first electronic computer ever, the Founding Father of todays computer world). 17SEP2009: Captain Jerry Roberts visits the Google London office to speak about his time as a code breaker at Bletchley Park during World War 2. This talk took place as part of the Speakers@Google series, on the 24th August 2009. (1h7m45s)

A Brief History of Computing (including Colossus). It mentions DEUCE which I was shown in 1957 (at English Electric, Kidsgrove near Leicester) by a Mr. Lam from Vietnam who worked there. It also mentions Maurice Wilkes (1913-2010) who built EDSAC in 1949: I attended some of his lectures in Cambridge. (Geoffrey Morley)
