Plot
Rita is left in the lurch when Leanne tells her that she's going to Canada for three weeks. Martin starts work at the Rovers. Jack suggests to Natalie that they swap homes, saying that Vera is upset by the thought of house-hunting. Natalie is hoping to sell No.6 but considers the idea. Maud is puzzled when Nita questions her about stock control and prices. Lorraine asks Natalie to consider her as a tenant for No.6. Vera searches for a job but is too old and inexperienced. Kevin worries about telling Sally about Alison and him taking the girls away for the weekend. Nick and Leanne leave for Canada. Sally is stunned when the girls tell her they're going away with Kevin and his girlfriend. She tackles Kevin so he tells her about Alison. She accuses him of manipulating her; she can't object as the girls are looking forward to it. When Vera shouts at Natalie and calls her a witch, Natalie tells her there's no way she's renting No.6 to them and she wants them out of the pub immediately.
