Maths at the Movies: The Imitation Game plus SPECIAL GUEST

In this episode we watch the movie The Imitation Game. 





Alongside your regular team of Thomas, Ben and Liz there was only
one mathematician with the expertise who could take us through
this movie with grace, wit and wisdom. And that mathematician
wasn't available so we got 


Dr James Grimes 


instead.





Join us for episode five of Maths at: The Movies as we
separate fact from fiction about the life of Alan Turing.
