Karpov was on series 8 but I've never seen it, perhaps the BBC will make it available at some point.
My kids don't normally sit through ANY dvd without yapping endlessly, but they seem totally engrossed whenever I put this on.

Originally posted by FastEddieBThey usually start at 2pm UK time i think, so i would imagine they will be playing in early hours of morming, were you are. I dont think were getting any tv coverage in UK so i be watching over the net.
Can anyone tell me what time the games begin?
I'd like to watch the games streaming, if possible.
I'm US, eastern standard time.
Thanks!

The matches start @ 3pm Indian time, which I think is 10am UK time, 5am EST, i could be slightly out though
here's the tournament's home website, where I presume you will be able to watch the games live: http://chennai2013.fide.com/
full schedule (inc. rest days) are shown here: http://www.chessvibes.com/anand-carlsen-three-weeks-until-game-1

I watched the Anand/Gelfand match on the official site which had some nice big name GM commentary. But I prefer to watch the game on a chess server with live chat from patzers like me, as well as the GM stuff. So what's the best free option?

A lot of the silliness that goes on in chat during these events are half the fun.
Although it's good to be able to block the twits who want to tell the world what their engine thinks of the position. Haven't these guys got games they should be cheating in?!

Remember we will have our own Anand - Carlsen game going on
that we cannot talk about. That should be fun.
