Raystrach - not everybody has been around as long as you!!
I believe the term "telltale" is not a term used in the Rules, but more a player's term.
Yep, I suppose the Board and the Tin form the telltale.
It is a pity there was not a tell tale on the lines around the court as well - it might stop a few arguments.  When we get hawkeye that will fix that.

"where have you blokes been??

the telltale is the tin. at a guess i would say  it is because that when the tin is hit, there is the telltale noise,"

the telltale is the tin. at a guess i would say  it is because that when the tin is hit, there is the telltale noise, whereas if there were just a line, it would be very difficult to tell where the ball had hit!
