Well, there was this place called "The Turing Institute" which was in Glasgow. It was run by a very nice man called Don Michie. I met Don a handful of times, and he was extremely kind and generous to me. He worked at Bletchley Park and died aged 91 having hit a bridge at 120mph going the wrong way up the M11 at 2am sitting next to his wife who had defected to Russia thirty years before. Don was driving, at the time he had been blind for six months. Would you mind going into detail? I looked up three news reports and his wikipedia page and none mention anything beyond a car crash, and searching "Don Mitchie russia" and "Anne McLaren russia" gives only this HN thread as a relevant result. It sounds like you were close with them, so if there's anything more to that story then it would be interesting to hear it.
