Plot[]

The Hewitts prepare for the house-warming party. Concepta is stressed and picks arguments with Harry. Len tells them he's arranged for Nellie to pick up Lucille from school and take her home with her. Dennis doesn't want to go to the party as it'll be full of old people. Elsie is annoyed that neither Linda nor Bill have written to her. Ena argues with Florrie over her Christmas club money. Concepta has invited Minnie and Martha to the party via Ena, but Ena doesn't convey the message as she isn't speaking to them and blanks them when she comes into Minnie's house. Martha is annoyed when she calls into the corner shop and hears that Florrie and Dennis have been invited to the party. Annie wants Concepta to return permanently as Rovers' barmaid but knows Harry is against it. Annie gives Jack the impression that Concepta will be returning and demands that the entire pub is modernised. Jack tells Harry about Concepta's return and is told it's not settled. Martha and Minnie sit alone in the snug, thinking they've not been invited as Harry buys in more bottles. He goes home and he and Concepta row about the bar job. Elsie insists that Dennis puts on a suit for the party. The residents start to arrive at the party where Harry and Concepta try to put on a brave face. Annie leaves for the party as Minnie and Martha watch on jealously. Len arrives to fetch them after Ena admits she didn't pass the invitation on. They're outraged at their friend's behaviour. Len proposes a toast to the Hewitts as "the happy couple" but Ena sees through the pretence and mutters to Elsie that they're far from that.
