I didn't realise there was any doubt that cheque is the British English spelling, and thus the right one. Obviously, if the "check" spelling was used in the title of an in-universe book or of a story, etc, we wouldn't alter the names of those articles, but in-text, cheque should always be used.

AdricLovesNyssa has informed me that, in fact, the spelling "check" is used in The Silver Turk's official script, and that story is so far the only one we've discovered that calls draughts "checkers/chequers" at all.
