Episode 2765 (30th September 1987)

Plot
Deirdre tells Ken she's sick of his nagging her over her work and accuses him of being jealous. Rita is stunned to see Martin driving his car in Weatherfield. Deirdre organises Emily and Susan to babysit Tracy when she returns home. Ken is angry as he thinks Deirdre should give up her Council work until Tracy is better. Jack feels that all the fire needs is having the chimney swept. Tracy returns home. Jack borrows the tools and sweeps the chimney himself. He brings down a load of soot, covering the room, himself and Vera. He then uses Vera's new coat to wipe his face. Rita calls at Martin's house and learns from his father that Martin's been back a while.
