Before television took a hold BBC Radio produced a superb series of programmes on chess.The experts enlisted for this venture constituted a veritable Who's Who of British and World chess of the time: Abrahams, Alexander, Barden, Broadbent, Bruce, Clarke, Euwe, Fraenkel, Golombek, Haygarth, Kottnauer, Pritchard, Rhoden, Sunnucks,and Wade. Favourite games,and gravest errors, masters at work, and a look into the past.
Terence Tiller joined the BBC in 1946.He ran the weekly chess series on Network Three for several years.
