Plot
Suzie takes her overall in to make it fit her figure. Betty dreams of how to spend her £300 compensation. Suzie decides she could do worse than Steve and thinks of the machinists' reactions if she were to go out with one of the bosses. Deirdre helps Ken by typing up his annual budget report. In return Ken takes Tracy and her out for a picnic. Alf discovers Betty got free legal aid and Mike got £600 for his compensation. Deirdre tells Ken their age difference doesn't bother her. Hilda applies for a job as machinist at the factory as she wants some independence. Mike tells her she's too old to be taught the machines. Ken decides to rent a holiday cottage in the Lake District. He asks Deirdre and Tracy to join him. Deirdre isn't sure if he's propositioning her but agrees to go along.
