Read between the lines.
Lots to find.
In recent years, more & more people are waking up to the understanding that there is a lot that does not make sense in the conventional world view, or "consensus reality". Everything is tainted with corruption and deception: news reporting, pharmaceutical data, politics and history to name just a few.
Worse than that, there are active efforts to suppress the truth, as many discovered during the covid era.
When official facts are fiction, could some fiction be fact?
In a world where people are persecuted for speaking the truth, is it possible that meaningful truths can be disguised as fiction?
From Bletchley Park to 007 (1/7)
At Bletchley Park, the British World War 2 codebreaking centre, many of those recruited came from the theatre world - actors, musicians and dancers, and they knew how to make their own wartime fun to keep their spirits up through dark times.
In fact, the codebreakers spent so much time putting on theatrical performances it seems like a miracle that they got any "real" work done.
Or perhaps that was the point. Non-verbal comms?

(Of course, acting skills are also very useful for special operators gathering intelligence in the field, but that's another story…)
My grandparents were definitely not involved in any of this. No way. Not a chance.

From Bletchley Park to 007 (2/7)
Bletchley Park turned out to be quite a talent incubator in the fields of fiction and poetry.
After the war, several codebreakers and intelligence operatives went on to have successful publishing careers.
Of these, the most famous is undoubtedly Ian Fleming, Assistant to the Director of Naval Intelligence, who created the character James Bond, Agent 007. Bond has become one of the most famous film franchises in the world.
Bond at Bletchley - from the official Ian Fleming website
Bletchley Park is the home of British codebreaking and a birthplace of modern information technology. It played a major role in the Second World War, decrypting secret intelligence which had a direct and profound influence on the outcome of the conflict… The site is now an accredited museum dedicated to telling the story of Bletchley Park’s achievements and the people who worked there during the War.
One of those people was Ian Fleming, who visited Bletchley Park on several occasions during the War, in his role as Assistant to the Director of Naval Intelligence. This was a position that gave him access to the very depths of British Intelligence, during a time of critical national security. Fleming had clearance to read Ultra reports, the highest British security classification, and some influence over Bletchley staff appointments. He was responsible for intelligence coordination and planning, contriving ways to intercept signals material.

It's definitely beyond the realm of possibility that all 4 of my grandparents were involved in Bletchley intel ops. Ok, sure, they all knew each other during the war before they even got married and had children, they all had the right jobs and skill sets and went on to play highly relevant roles in the post-war era, but it must be a coincidence.
It's not like they could have planned it or anything. That's just farfetched. Crazy talk!

Story = Information Technology
Stories are complex forms of communication that carry deeper meaning than is obvious than the surface reading.
Stories that are carried forward through time are those that people found useful enough to remember and share.
A lot of real information can be wrapped up in the pretty package of a story.
Stories can help us understand a complicated situation through metaphor and analogy: "it's like when…".
For example: it's like when David beat Goliath even though everyone thought Goliath would obviously win; it's like when Luke Skywalker was fighting Darth Vader and found out that Darth Vader was his own father.
Stories can act as playbooks: manuals of strategy & tactics.
Stories can prompt us to ask deeper questions or to look at the world in a new way.
Stories can be used to secretly distribute information that would otherwise be censored and suppressed.

So much to find!
From Bletchley Park to 007 (4/7)
Here's an example of a false flag attack being used manipulate government's into starting a war.

It's in the shadows. That's where we must do battle.

From Bletchley Park to 007 (6/7)
My favourite Bond trope is the one where 007 manipulates the villain into not killing him yet, or killing him very, very slowly. The villain, sure of his success, discloses the entire evil plan, then leaves, allowing Bond to miraculously escape and foil the plot.
I love that one.

From Bletchley Park to 007 (7/7)
Of course, Bond is a master of implausible escapes. 007 always gets the necessary information, then evades certain death and gets away SCOTT FREE just in time to save the free world.
Like this.

Greased Lightning!!! (1/3)
Incidentally, Olivia Newton-John, the singer and actress who starred in the hit movie Grease, had a family connection to Bletchley Park. Her father, MI5 intelligence officer Brinley Newton-John, worked there as a code-breaker. In between breaking Enigma codes, Brin Newton-John was another one of those theatrical Bletchley Parkers who loved to put on shows during the war.
On her mother's side, her grandfather was Max Born, a German physicist who was instrumental in the development of quantum mechanics.

Those Bletchley Parkers sure knew how to get their comms out.

Physics + Espionage + Technological Innovation= Greased Lightning!!!
Bletchley Park was the birthplace of much of our modern technology.
I think the innovations there probably happened a lot like this.
Nice lab, guise! Can I have one like that?

My grandparents definitely did not train me as a child for this kind of highjinks.
I'm certain of it.
