We went to Bletchley Park the other day, super secret agent spy stuff. It was where the Allies decoded all the German messages. Basically, it boiled down to if Bletchley Park had not cracked the codes they did, the Allies would have lost WWII. There were tons of old computers. They actually build the first computer (contrary to popular belief) but because it was top secret, the technology they used wasn't released until 30 years after the war.

I understand why they called this 'Colossus'
