Dermot, who is a trustee of the park, last year wrote a book called Prof: Alan Turing Decoded. It takes a fresh look at the codebreaker’s life and creativity.

His talk will take place on Sunday April 3 and will be followed by a question and answer session.

Afterwards Dermot will sign books in the visitor centre.
