Plot[]
Celeste Pickersgill is unable to dance after a fall, so Norris is forced to plead with Vera to be his partner again. Maria is cool towards Tyrone, thinking he doesn't really like her. He is certain she's the girl he's going to marry and doesn't want to rush sex as she's so special. Gary advises Tyrone to make a gesture to show her what she means to him. Linda tells Mark she can't cope with being away from him but he tells her one of them has to finish the affair and he's definitely going to Amsterdam. Spider offers to organise a belated party to celebrate Toyah and Leanne's eighteenth birthdays. Les decides to take over when he discovers Toyah's boss at Radio Weatherfield is going to attend. Tyrone proposes to a happy Maria at the top of Blackpool Tower and gives her a matching ring to his.
