Plot
Frank goes to Scarborough to recuperate. Schoolgirl Rita Spears tells Lucille she fancies Ken. Lucille promises to get her a photo of him. Val gives her one, thinking she admires Ken herself. Bailiff Mr. Riding arrives to sort Elsie out. He tries to break into No.11 but the residents see him off. Swindley discovers that Elsie is covered by the 1957 Rent Act and the bailiffs need a court order before entering the house. In glee, Elsie signs all the bailiffs' forms before discovering that because she went away for a few weeks in 1960 she is not covered by the Act.
