Plot[]
Jim talks Liz into going for the Rovers; this time there'll be no one telling them what to do as it'll be their pub. Billy gives Betty his mother's brooch for her to wear for the wedding. Reg tells Anne that her complaint is being dealt with but admits to Curly that he's not done anything. Curly is disgusted with his attitude. Gordon gives Betty away as she marries Billy. She is upset when Bet doesn't arrive and gets Raquel to sign the register for her. Curly gets Anne's story and believes her. He tells Reg they must stop Leo but Reg thinks the girl is just being hysterical. Gordon is fed up with the way Caroline wants to escape from Weatherfield as soon as possible. Percy is pleased when Betty leads the clapping for his wedding cake. Rodney Bostock is installed again as temporary manager at the Rovers. Billy and Betty plan a honeymoon in Torquay. Jim and Liz view the Rovers and tell the brewery manager they definitely want it.
