Notes[]
- TV Times synopsis: Terry Duckworth walks free from prison. But the question is, why doesn't he return home straight away?
- Viewing Figures: UK broadcast - 17,730,000 viewers (6th place - combined figure including repeat).
- The Granada Plus repeat of this episode on 30th September 2004 was edited for timing reasons, omitting an entire Kabin scene, lasting 1'05" in Part One, in which Jim McDonald, Mavis Wilton and Rita Sullivan discuss the front-page article of the Weatherfield Gazette that criticises Alf Roberts, before the man himself walks in. Jim does not appear elsewhere in the episode. The ITV3 repeat on 30th October 2019 reinstated the cut scene.
