It's Postman Pat, the world's most famous big nosed Postman, and he was on your humble Spectrum not once, not twice, but at least three times back in the day. The first outing being this game released in 1988.

Never have I struggled so hard to review a single game. There are half a dozen videos for this recorded way back in 2007, and the final ones done in June '08, which is what you see here in this video. This is a game where seemingly nothing interesting ever happens. In fact, there's more action to be had by pacing up and down at home 2 days before Christmas, periodically peering out of the window whilst still clinging onto the faint hope that the postie will arrive any minute now with the expensive gift intended for your other half that you paid an extra fiver for to make sure it arrived before Christmas day, than there is in spending 10 hours playing this pile of poop.

Warning: This video is not intended for the eyes, nor ears of young impressionable children, or people who seem to generally dislike me somewhat. Cheers.

    Can you review a game that you remember well and can play well.I really enjoyed your Banyan tree challenge after a night on the beer....I was genuinely chuffed when you managed to do it.
    More like that would be great...
    P.S. I'm biased as i love Jet Set Willy.

    LOL. well.. I saw few episodes of Postman Pat and didn't find anything strange about it but maybe I'm "politically incorrect" too. ;) I gotta play this game :)

    Not a word against the Churchill dog.

    Why does Pat's van wobble around like it's made out of jelly? Garbage game. It looks almost as bad as Miami Vice on the speccy.
