How about if movie gets called .....'Heroes of Vera Atkins Army --- True Story of Her Spies, Including Noor Inayat Khan, Indian Princess' ie in huge letters: H e r o e s of V e r a A t k i n s A r m y: the True Story of Her Spies, Including Noor Inayat Khan, Indian Princess. Produced, Written and Starring Sarah Meghan Thomas, and Stana Katic (Castle, Absentia). Good try but imo not catchy enough nor do enough people know who Vera Atkins was. I think that's perhaps why Vera Atkins Army isn't being used. The film could use a name that's relevant and clever but doesn't name names, sort of like Hidden Figures, which brilliantly worked on two levels -- the "hidden" numbers that had to be calculated and the "hidden" women who did that calculating. Not that I have any brilliant ideas myself. :):) In WWI there was an earlier group of spies working against the Kaiser called the Alice Network (there's a new novel out by that name based on it in part) after the alias of the Frenchwoman who coordinated the group. Atkins' Army is too broad a name since the movie focuses on just two of Vera's recruits and Vera herself. Wish we knew more about the script to select a proper title, but it might be fun for everyone to suggest something. How about then, : Winston Churchill's Secret Army -- the True Story of the Women Spies Network Written, Produced and Starring Sarah Meghan Thomas and Stana Katic (Castle, Absentia). Everyone knows about Winston Churchill, the story is true, and covers Virginia Hall and her prosthetic leg, Cuthbert; Indian Princess Noor Inayat Khan, recently announced to be the face of the UK $50 or$100 note, and Vera Atkins who was the overseer/boss, but under Winston Churchill.

Or another one: E N I G M A (the nickname given to the decoding machine) The True Story of the Secret Lives of the Women Spies of the Special Operations Executive Written Produced and Starring Sarah Meghan Thomas and Stana Katic (Castle, Absentia). (Enigma has the same type of name as 'Valkyrie' the movie starring Tom Cruise. Its also set the same era.).

Possible. Two strikes against it are 1) the film could get lost among all the Churchill stuff that's out there already and 2) there's a two-year-old movie by the name of Churchill's Secret (about his stroke in the early 1950s). BTW Khan won't be on the 50 pound note. TPTB decided to follow tradition and go with another scientist on that denomination to be named in 2020. Enigma won't work either because there's a movie about the code breakers by that name (2002, with a young Kate Winslet) that's very good. Also it's too well known as having to do with the code. I'm fooling around with some of the book titles about Atkins, like Spymistress and A Life in Secrets. I also like Into the Dark, the title of the 14-minute interview/documentary with Vera towards the end of her life. If I recall correctly, "into the dark" was a phrase Vera used to describe what her spies were dropping into. Have to watch it again. Thanks for playing, Syd. :):)

I thought that Noor Inayat Khan on a new UK note was a done thing. Obviously not. Thanks for the update. I thought Enigma was pretty good. Oh well. Youre welcome re me playing. I was thinking that Spymistress and a Life of Secrets couldnt be used as they are the book titles. But anyway....

Sadly Khan will not be featuring on the £50 note, there was a decision to put a British Scientist on the note and the favourite at the moment is Ada Lovelace, a Mathematician who worked on the early computing machines which would be an excellent result.....already petitions have been started for peoples favourites and it will be quite a contest. Whatever they call the film few people know who Vera Atkins is, the jobs they held were so secretive that few outside their circle knew they existed, even now there are obituaries of people involved with SOE or Bletchley Park, women no one has heard of but who played pivotal roles in the war. Recently Baroness Trumpington died at the age of 94, she was involved in Naval intelligence at Bletchley before becoming involved in government and eventually the House of Lords, I would be very surprised if many knew her in the UK and certainly I doubt anyone in the US would have any inkling of her roles during that period. Name the film what you will but it will need a lot of PR to get the message across about the content and characters in order to promote interest as there have been a few films in recent years covering similar topics, especially of people like Turing who managed to grab the imagination of viewers to the detriment of many of his contemporaries.

The Official Secrets Act seems to be the source of many of these untold stories from Britain's WWII history. Just saw a very good movie on Amazon Prime - Castles in the Sky - about the development of radar in the days around the beginning of the war and just before the Battle of Britain. As the work covered by the Official Secrets Act comes out we get an idea of the breath and depth of the efforts put in by individuals and the cost the Official Secrets Act took on their lives and the economy of Britain after the war. I expect to see many more great stories from that period.

This is why I think they need a name that evokes a sense of mystery like Hidden Figures does. That name's like a good headline. It grabs you but it's also accurate. Did anyone take note how the word about HF got out? I know it had Fox behind it for distribution and I recall it utilized a late-in-the-year limited release to qualify for the Oscars then waited for some Oscar buzz to go to wide release. But I also remember hearing about the movie before the limited release. Perhaps the early promo scheme for Hidden Figures might work here too. I'm not comparing the two movies at this point other than superficially as they are both about three relatively unknown women (played by relatively unknown actresses) in unusual situations of the time.

Indeed, and many stories will never be told due to the Act which ensures so many files remain closed, many of these these files are sealed again every 20-30 years. It is fascinating to think of the secrets held and likely to be held for many years to come from a war in the 1940's. However many of the personal stories like those of the Baroness were not secret, people just never looked past the lady in the House of Lords to see what she had done all those years ago, like so many others.

Interesting. Is any reason given for such lengthy secrecy? I can understand maintaining secrecy for 2-3 decades to protect individuals and to ensure the stability of the world after such a huge war, but it's 70 years now and you're saying it could go on for another 30? What or who are they protecting?

I have wondered about that myself many times, some details and documents are unlikely to be revealed for many years yet, if ever. Modern documentaries frequently mention producers frustrations at the level of secrecy still surrounding many aspects of that war, surrounding both operations and personal histories...it would be fascinating to have a peak at some of these archives, but sadly they remain sealed.

Modern documentaries frequently mention producers frustrations at the level of secrecy still surrounding many aspects of that war, surrounding both operations and personal histories...it would be fascinating to have a peak at some of these archives, but sadly they remain sealed. The US had some secret, classified info stemming from WWII and later the Cold War years, including stuff about codebreakers, but I believe all that has been released by now. The most famous example of such secret keeping in my lifetime was the John F. Kennedy files pertaining to his assassination. They included documents that preceded his death from earlier in his presidency, things such as the Bay of Pigs disaster, the Cuban missile crisis, how much the CIA and FBI knew about Oswald before November 22, 1963, and personal info about JFK himself (health, affairs, connections with the Mafia, and so on). Some was leaked or released in the 70s and 80s, but interestingly, it was Oliver Stone's movie on JFK in the early 1990s that pushed the government into releasing all of it. The feds were given 25 years to review, process and release every bit of it, and they did so over the years. Those 25 years were up last year so I believe everything's in the public eye now. Why the secrecy? My guess is to protect the faces of those involved, including the CIA, FBI, and even JFK himself.

Many thanks for the update re the change re the UK notes and who will be honoured with their face. The show The Betchley Circle has been shown here and Ive seen a few eps. Its very good depicting what happened what happened just after the war. I totally agree that whatever the Vera movie is named, it will need to receive a massive amount of PR re the content and its characters to promote interest. I do think that having Winston Churchills name as part of it would help as people should know who he was, and, for the James Bond movie franchise to be as popular as it is, and worth probably billions, the fact that the character of M is supposed to be based on Vera, should be included in the PR spin. M was a fictional character, where Vera was a real living person. It may grab peoples imaginations/attention, to know that M was based on Vera Atkins. But that just is just my thought. But whatever the PR does, it will most definately need to generate masses of PR to generate peoples interest/attention. Plus the old infamous saying.....truth is often stranger than fiction. Ive just had another thought: Khaki and Silk, The True Untold Story of the Female Spies of the Secret Army of Winston Churchill. The silk being what the women used to use as a cover for the messages decoded.

Silk, was also used by the RAF for maps it gave to their aircrew in case they were shot down during a raid.....some of them were really elaborate and unless you looked really closely you would not know they were actually maps.....they were usually in the form of scarves worn around the neck.

Id forgotten that bit. I just remembered that they were silk. I have a copies of the pics from both books, re the spies, ie their faces/names and their code/spy name; theres also a pic of a spy with the silk scarf with the info that they were silk and were used to hide the decoded messages. The silk scarves used for that purpose was indeed very clever. , and ingenious.

Syd, Temple - very interesting about the silk. I had forgotten that bit from the Atkins bio and didn't know about the maps. Was Khaki part of their uniforms? If so then that's a terrific name, very clever. I rewatched the Into the Dark vimeo last night and came away with only one quote from Vera that could work as a title. When speaking about seeing her people leave on their missions - she always accompanied them to the airfield and was one of the last ones to talk to them - she said, "and then they were on their own." On Their Own could work as a film title. It conveys just how dangerous the missions were and is factually true. Although the spies worked with a network, the couriers and radio operators worked very much on their own. They were left to their own even when captured since they had no status as POWs. In a way, Vera too was "on her own." She was a woman among men at the top of SOE, she was Jewish and came from an enemy country, and had a secret dealing with Nazis in 1940(?) to get some family members out of their clutches. She was very much isolated at times.

For me, I was just thinking that the current name of the movie, ie, Vera Atkins Army,....that the Army wears khaki coloured uniforms, so thats where I got the khaki from. From the pics in the books I read, I think a colour was khaki, but another colour could be black. The pics are all b/w. 'On Their Own' is also a good title., and yes Vera was isolated at times, and in one of the books it is explained that she chose to be because a relative was a German soldier and she couldnt trust him., so she told her nieces a story that she was often away on 'adventures'. Vera lived to be around 90 and died in about 2000.

How do you know their professional contact?

Launch of Twitter and Instagram pages for the film. Poor choice of title IMO. It's simply too long for movie goers to bother remembering and will therefore be constantly referred to as simply 'Liberte'. The emphasis on a French connection is curious given the entire premise of Atkins project was driven and coordinated via British intelligence. Being a little cynical here but could it be that Stana has decent name recognition in France, having won some fan based awards, so making a 'French connection' was a marketing ploy here?

Excellent news and brillliant that she is being immortalised/honoured in the film. Many thanks for posting this article Temple. I just remembered that the books I read both mention the statue in her honour.
