[quote=Anonymous]Interestingly, it was actually Kasparov who first brought in the concept of KGB handlers when he met with the creative team behind the Queen's Gambit. His task was to work as a chess technical advisor, and he pointed out: "The third component is that it’s about Soviet chess. It’s the KGB—these guys are not in the book. I said, “Soviet champions traveling in the ’60s in the West with their family, they must be accompanied by KGB guys.” https://slate.com/culture/2020/11/queens-gambit-garry-kasparov-interview-netflix-chess-adviser.html [/quote]
