Interview with Sarah Hegarty about the Olympiad which can be heard for the next seven days starting at 2h 35m 30ish and lasting for six minutes.

The end of the interview neatly summed up the challenge facing us in raising the profile of chess: "That was Sarah Hegarty who's just represented England at the chess Olympiad in Siberia. [With increasing amazement] Who knew such things happened?"

Sarah came across pretty well. (The interviewer clearly struggled with the idea that a strong chessplayer could sound just like a "normal" student, though.)
