Tennis

Tennis, for the BBC B, will bring back memories to anyone who has played the classic video game. Here you can compete either against the computer, or against another player, the winner being the first to reach ten points.

You cannot move your bat until the other person has hit the ball back to you and you can send the ball at an angle by using the side of your bat.

There are five speeds from which to choose in Tennis and, according to J. Bradshaw of Peebles, Tweeddale, who wrote the program, it is possible, but not easy, to win at all levels.
