Plot[]
Eddie and Monkey Gibbons spend the night in Elsie's living room after she chucks them out of her bedroom. Elsie threatens them with a milk bottle and asks Gail to phone the police. Eddie convinces her not to report them. Elsie asks Ray to put new locks on the windows. Bet tells Elsie it was Ray who set Eddie up. Renee refuses Hilda credit. Hilda threatens to take her custom elsewhere. Elsie lets Ray off the hook until he tells her that he thought she'd be desperate for two fellas. She puts a glass ashtray in her handbag. The regulars try to stop her but she belts him with the bag. Annie throws Ray out of the Rovers. Mavis doesn't understand what she can do to show Derek she wants him. Rita asks Derek to take a liberty with Mavis. Annie threatens Elsie with legal action if she lets rip again. Fred gets a job as a storeman in the afternoons and plans to work evenings at the Rovers. James Buckley, an inspector, calls on Renee and tells her she has been reported for opening after 9.30pm, selling tobacco after 8.00pm and selling non-perishable goods on Sundays.
