N.B. Technical hitch: an abbreviated, 12 minute, version went out. You won't get away that easily! The final version should be 50 minutes! More Espionage! I still can't say the word without putting on a silly voice! This episode is a little longer than we generally aim for. We also didn't cover as much as we had wanted - no Ninjas. But we really did a lot on all the plots and spying going on around the reign of Queen Elizabeth I. The main focus is Francis Walsingham, who was known as Elizabeth's Spy Master.

This one must have landed as a bit of a surprise for anyone out there still subscribed to the podcast. It might be our last but it sounds good thanks to a little help from a friend. This episode is about the kinds of spies we are used to seeing in the movies and so on: WWII and of course the Cold War.

Bletchley Park. We visited the legendary "Home of the Codebreakers", where Alan Turing, Gordon Welchman and an assorted cast broke the German Enigma code machine during WWII. This is another of our intrepid and and about recordings. Hopefully what it loses in sound quality it makes up in atmosphere. Please visit our website https://ourhistorypodcast.com/ where I will be posting pictures and references.

011 - The History of Espionage - part 1
This is just an introduction for what will be a multi-part series on Espionage. In this episode we discuss some of the key elements to spying across the ages whether you are Alfred the Great pretending to be a lute player infiltrating a viking encampment or a modern day drone operative. We see how military intelligence can help decide when to [audio src="https://ourhistorypodcast.files.wordpress.com/2017/10/011-the-history-of-espionage-part-1.mp3"][/audio]attack and when to RUN AWAY!!!! We were trying to keep it short but as ever, we do ramble a little.
