Plot[]
Len comes to. Elsie rows with Rita for hitting him. Mavis entertains the customers in the Rovers with her comic songs and has too much to drink. Bet makes her stay at the Rovers for the night as Annie is in Jersey. Dr. Brooks gives Len the all clear but advises him to take it easy. Rita apologises to him. Mike Baldwin gives Ernie the wages clerk job for £45 a week. Doreen Thornley rings Elsie and tells her that Roy has moved in with Sylvia Matthews so she's citing her now and not Gail. She also tells her Roy and Sylvia are moving on and giving the shop up. The Bishops celebrate with an Italian meal. Bet, Rita and Elsie fuss round Len: he enjoys it. He tells them that if he doesn't rest he'll end up in hospital.
