Stan tries to get cigarettes on the slate but Hilda makes him pay. Ken arranges for Billy to fix his car while Lucille gets annoyed with him for delaying fixing Arthur Noblett's radio. He further angers her with his attitude towards her good works. Bet enjoys the drive across the moors. Noblett is annoyed when Lucille buys him teabags instead of loose tea and demands his radio back. In the garage, Billy chucks the radio to Kev, his young mechanic, who drops it on floor smashing it to pieces. Billy offers to get a replacement. A garage/hotel that Frank knew on the moors is now a derelict. He and Bet explore it and he tries to scare her as it's supposedly haunted. Bet is worried about the age difference between them. They make love in the deserted premises. Ray puts Annie's name up above the door. She demands it's painted as "Anne Walker", amusing the regulars, and then changes her mind.
