Plot[]
Jack offers to pay Brian weekly but Brian refuses to let it go. Curly holds court in the Rovers' snug with Elaine, Gill and Mandy who think he's wonderful now that he's been on the radio. Kevin and Terry aren't amused when their girls are all over Curly. Curly is stunned when a lunatic, Alban Pilkington, calls on him asking him what his space brothers looked like. He is disappointed when Curly says he didn't see anyone. Linda apologises to Bill and hopes that he'll take an interest in her. She is upset that he is only interested in the house and promises to leave immediately. Jack tries to steal the car from Brian's garage but finds Kevin and Terry with the girls in it.

Notes[]
- Final appearance of Anne Cunningham as Linda Cheveski and the last occasion on which a character from Episode 1, other than Ken Barlow, appeared in the main programme until Philip Lowrie returned as Dennis Tanner in Episode 7599 on 12th May 2011. However this wasn't Anne's final appearance in anything Coronation Street-related as she went on to appear in the 1987 VHS special The Life and Loves of Elsie Tanner, in character as Linda in scenes specially shot for the video.
- TV Times synopsis: When Linda Cheveski finds out that Bill Webster is buying her mother Elsie's house, she asks him to tea - and makes a proposition. Brian Tilsley has taken Jack Duckworth's cab, so Jack resorts to desperate measures…
