In a programme showing how to play better chess, grandmasters Dan King and Ray Keene go through a demonstration game from opening gambit to checkmate, revealing the key moves that can lead to victory. They explain the opening, middle and end games, and how to outwit an opponent with techniques such as forks, pins and skewers. Along the way the diverse world of British chess playing is celebrated, including speed chess and chess boxing, plus advice on how not to be humiliated by a child prodigy.
