7th July 1975: Deirdre Hunt and Ray Langton got married at Weatherfield Registry Office. Guests included Blanche Hunt, Len Fairclough, Jerry Booth and Rita Littlewood. Deirdre and Ray had decided to marry a week before after making up when Ray taunted Deirdre over Billy Walker breaking his and Deirdre's engagement. The news surprised everyone close to the couple, particularly Deirdre's mother Blanche, who thought she was a fool to marry Ray as they had never got along since Deirdre started working as a secretary at the Builders' Yard. The Langtons had a happy start to their marriage and their daughter Tracy was born in 1977.
