Rutland u3a monthly meeting

The BBC and The Bomb - Cold War broadcasting from the bunkers

Ian Betson is to use his real-world knowledge, and using a multi-media presentation of images, audio, video and some now declassified documents, Iain tells the story of this little-known piece of Cold War history: from where would it have been broadcast? What would you have heard (you'll be surprised)? And who, in the event of an attack, would have descended into the bunker to broadcast it? 

Doors open at 10am with the talk starting at 10.30am.

The talk is free to members with membership costing £10.pa.

PLEASE NOT THAT ALL MEETINGS NOW ARE ON THE FIRST WEDNESDAY OF THE MONTH AT OUR NEW VENUE OF OAKHAM BAPTIST CHURCH.
