Fascinating story about a woman who was mathematically brilliant and rich, and used her resources to build a steampunk mechanical computer in the 1840s.
The only problem is in the mixing background music and narration. The music doesn't seem to know its place and overwhelms the narrator.

7.3Plot summary
Ada Lovelace was a most unlikely computer pioneer. In this film, Dr Hannah Fry tells the story of Ada's remarkable life. Born in the early 19th century Ada was a countess of the realm, a scandalous socialite and an 'enchantress of numbers'. The film is an enthralling tale of how a life infused with brilliance, but blighted by illness and gambling addiction, helped give rise to the modern era of computing.
