Notes[]
- Dennis Tanner's account of Elsie's death is the first reference to the character's fate in the programme proper. However this contradicts the spin-off video The Life and Loves of Elsie Tanner - released in 1987 as a tribute to the recently deceased Patricia Phoenix - which makes several references to Elsie's death. The ending for the character as related in this episode was storylined by Tony Warren at the production team's request.
- TV Times synopsis: Chesney lands on the Hoyles' doorstep, determined to uncover the truth; Sophie is suspicious of Tommy's motives as he gives Sian her first driving lesson; and Rita discovers the identity of the unkempt man from the soup kitchen.
- Viewing Figures: First UK broadcast: 8,180,000 viewers (11th place).
Notable dialogue[]
Rita Sullivan (raising her cup of tea): "To Elsie."
Dennis Tanner: "They don't make 'em like that any more."
