English Chess Forum

The ECF YouTube Channel will now feature a couple of weekly shows on a Tuesday - Friday schedule. Talented Tuesdays has Natasha Regan and Matthew Sadler reviewing games with strong players (generally juniors, but in their 1st video they hint they may branch out). It's Your Move [Fridays] is hosted by Michael Green and appears to feature topical discussion/upcoming events in English chess.

I think good initiatives and both will just need a little bit of time to settle out the format etc. YouTube is already a crowded environment for chess (reviewing games is I think somewhat easier to get right from the start but hard to distinguish from everything else that's available) but feels worth supporting and looking forward to seeing how these develop.
