Keti on the telly.
#1
Keti Arakhamia-Grant on BBC Breakfast this morning as they discussed one of Netflix's more successful series "The Queen's Gambit."

Contributions also from Malcolm Pein and a random English junior. Chess.com also contributing with their upsurge in online accounts.

Now whilst all this focus on chess appearing in main stream media is pleasing, I find the suggestion of a surge in people learning chess rather amusing.

I am unaware of any surge locally in Ayrshire of clubs or individuals being contacted, either during the first lockdown or now, about how to learn to play chess. Now that could all be taking place online with YouTube and online chess platforms being used.

The question may be, hopefully, how to cope with a surge in interest after OTB gets going again, or do they all stay online?
