Template:14 May

14th May 1986: Ken Barlow faced his worst nightmare as the day arrived when his daughter Susan was due to marry the man he despised most in the world, Mike Baldwin. Ken's hatred of Mike stemmed from the time of the man's affair with his wife Deirdre Barlow three years before. Ken tried every delaying tactic he could but when Susan realised what he was up to she demanded a quick wedding from Mike. Ken was determined not to attend the ceremony but a lecture from his son Peter on how he had been a totally inadequate parent made him change his mind. He turned up just in time to lead his daughter down the aisle but with no joy at the prospect and a heavy heart.
