Plot
Ken and Deirdre return from the Lake District. The factory alarm goes off all day whilst Mike is in London. Steve is in trouble as he's left the alarm key in the factory and is locked out. Annie promises a pint of beer to whoever silences the alarm. Stan hits it with a poker, hitting the electricity supply and cutting off the entire street's electricity. The lights eventually go on on the house side of the street but the factory continues to be without electricity. Steve worries that production on Brown's order will be affected. Ivy feels that she'd like Brian to marry in church. The factory girls refuse to enter the factory as the electricity is still off. Vera gives Stan a kiss of gratitude for getting her a day off work. Len tells Ken to remember Deirdre is a married woman. Mike returns from London to the news that the factory is closed. He has to restrain himself from hitting Stan. He threatens to have him charged with trespass. The residents side with Stan saying the alarm noise was unbearable. Brian and Gail agree to marry in Church. Deirdre receives a disturbing letter from Ray.
