Anyone ever played Tardis Tennis on the BBC website? It features 'dead celebrity' tennis players and is fiendishly addictive. There are two versions of it, the best being the very rare edition, featuring Elvis...

Bizarrely, its in the 'learning English' section of the site as an educational resource.

Check out Winston's funky match-winning celebrations...

I play it 'now and again' at work - its a great stress-reliever.

Winston Churchill is a great player to select - really enjoy going for powerful angled groundstrokes with him, especially off an early ball.

'Shakey' Shakespeare is v quick, nifty round the net - as an opponent he also gets a lot of flukey netcords - best way to beat him is to lob him.

'King' Elvis is a v tricky opponent in the final - you really need to take the ball early against him and stop him from moving up to the net.
