10th June 2002: There's a surprise guest at Betty Williams's Rovers retirement party - former landlady Bet Lynch. Bet left Weatherfield in 1995 when Newton & Ridley sold the pub and she couldn't afford it. As Bet catches up with her old friends, only Rita Sullivan gets a frosty reception, as she had refused to go into partnership with Bet to buy the Rovers. Bet tells Ken and Deirdre Barlow that she has really come to Weatherfield for a court case against a former lover who she tells them swindled money out of her. Bet's brief visit is cut short a week later when she loses the case and returns to her home at Brighton.
