Delivery Man (Episode 285)

The Delivery Man was an employee of Newton & Ridley who brought his regular consignment to the Rovers Return Inn one day in September 1963. Annie asked Jack to make sure that he got the man to wipe his feet and moderate his language if they started telling jokes and then left him to supervise while she went for a lie down.

Although the pub wasn't open, Ena Sharples came in looking for an umbrella that she was certain she had left in the premises. Looking for it, she was overcome with a dizzy spell to which the delivery man was the only witness as he brought more crates it. He asked her if she was alright as she looked "a bit funny". Ena quickly recovered herself and ungratefully told him to watch what he was saying.
