That's the
Nova this week, for people who
don't necessarily tune in otherwise.

Huh?
Er, yeah. Interpolating a little (okay a lot) I take it this is a tv
show and it will be explaining how the Brits (mostly) cracked the Enigma
and/or Geheimschreiber (Fish) codes? If so, should be some nice classic
hardware on show, wonder if it will show the recently built replica of
the Colossus? I also recall Bletchley were working on a replica of a
Bombe, having discovered the long lost blueprints at the factory where
they were made.
Is it off topic if the hardware is <10 years old, but a reproduction of
a 60 year old system? ;^)
