Template:28 April

28th April 1971: Barely three months after the tragic death of Valerie Barlow, Ken found himself saddled with an admirer: Olive Rowe, a languages teacher at Granston Technical College took a fancy to him. Olive also knew Emily Nugent from when she attended one of her classes at night school and she used her and Ernest Bishop as a cover to get to know Ken in his home environment. Emily realised that they'd been used and was short with Olive when she next saw her. Ken was well aware of the situation and in the staff room at the college sat Olive down and politely but firmly put the lonely, sad lady in her place when he told her that in his eyes no one could replace Val.
