"GCHQ Departmental Historian Tony Comer went even further in his criticism of the film's inaccuracies, saying that "The Imitation Game [only] gets two things absolutely right. There was a Second World War and Turing's first name was Alan".

If you are making a fictional film, knock yourself out. But when you are using a real person's name, have some respect for them and their work.
