Friday Night Quiz: Sports Round

It's Friday night! Time for a quiz. But this time, as warned earlier, I'm off to the pub -- so when it comes to the answers you're on your own until tomorrow afternoon. Or, perhaps until I stumble through the door in the wee small hours. ;)

This week, the sports round. I'm not a sports fan and always do badly in the pub quiz sports round. But I think I'd get most of these, as they're all from (reasonably) well-known ZX Spectrum games. See how you do. On your marks... get set... go!

I think we'll need those clues. I thought 4 might have been Gazza or the Adidas game but no.

Ah yes. Sorry - I blame the hangover. Right...

3. Alert! What's that smell?
4. A cock and hen, perhaps - but not Arthur's.

Yoyo picture's have gone.

3 - Ping Pong?

4, no idea. Cock and hen = ten, tennis?

Yes to 3...

...and on 4, you're certainly thinking along the right lines with 'ten'...

Yoyo, pictures are back! (I couldn't see them before, thought you'd deleted the link)

It's not ten pin challenge, a bowling game though?

It's a bit after the event, but I'm going to have to give up on 4. Any chance of another bloody big clue?

Gosh, I'd forgotten all about this - sorry. But happy to discuss further.

(That was your big clue... ;) )
