Consequently, what happened to Alan Turing's machine?
Turing committed suicide in 1952 by cyanide poisoning after being convicted of gross indecency for engaging in homosexual acts. He accepted chemical castration and reportedly spiralled into depression. He was granted a posthumous pardon by the Queen in 2013.
Additionally, how did Alan Turing's Christopher work? The main focus of Turing's work at Bletchley was in cracking the 'Enigma' code. The Enigma was a type of enciphering machine used by the German armed forces to send messages securely. Turing played a key role in this, inventing – along with fellow code-breaker Gordon Welchman – a machine known as the Bombe.
Just so, how did Alan Turing's friend died?
Actor Jack Bannon (left) portrays Alan Turing's friend Christopher Morcom (right), who died suddenly in 1930. Did Alan's friend Christopher really die suddenly of bovine tuberculosis?
Is imitation game historically accurate?
The Imitation Game jumps around three time periods – Turing's schooldays in 1928, his cryptographic work at Bletchley Park from 1939-45, and his arrest for gross indecency in Manchester in 1952. It isn't accurate about any of them, but the least wrong bits are the 1928 ones.
