Can Evan beat a chess Grand Master?

A new documentary, Bobby Fischer Against The World, tells the story of the Brooklyn boy who at 15 became the youngest Grand Master in history, before defeating Russia's Boris Spassky to win the 1972 World Championship.

Evan Davis caught up with British Grand Master Nigel Short to reflect on Bobby Fischer's career and the mental strain of professional chess, over a quick game.
