Plot
Tony Cunliffe pesters Rita for a date. She doesn't want to get involved. Percy's niece, Elaine Prior, tells him she's going to visit him. Rita asks questions about Bet and Tony. Alf and Betty tell her most of it's in Bet's mind. When Tony asks her out again she agrees. She's nervous as it's her first date since Len died. Hilda is upset that Trevor Ogden is too busy to visit Stan. Percy is delighted to have Elaine staying with him whilst she's on leave. Tony assures Rita that Bet is only a good mate; she's only a barmaid. After losing £100 at the casino, Billy goes dog racing with Bernie Fisher and the girls where he loses more money.
