An excerpt from an episode of Border Life I cut for ITV, originally aired in February 2021.
"Border Life pays tribute to a veteran of Bletchley Park, the wartime base where the Enigma code was cracked.
Mary Sherrard from Duns in Berwickshire worked on one of the machines that deciphered German codes. Mary died last month after contracting Covid-19.
