Steve MacDonald and his girlfriend Fiona decide they need to cut
back on Steve's spending to ease his money problems and the best
way to do this is for Steve to give up his flat in the docklands
and to move somewhere cheaper. Fiona asks Alma if the flat above
the cafe is still for rent, and now they are planning on moving
in there. Shaun tells Liz he is worried about Steve's overdraft
and warns her that he will go after the money.
Mavis and Derek accept an invitation to Angela's house for dinner
along with Norris. Angela and Mavis don't get on at all well and
Angela makes a pass at Norris and keeps on feeling his leg under
the table!
It's Rita's birthday and Alf takes in a bunch of flowers for her,
they end up having a heart to heart talk about life in general
and shop keeping and so on, and Alf tells Rita it's all worth
while when he gets a smile from her, she is so touched that they
give each other a hug just as Martin walks in the shop and he
teases Alf about this. Later, Alf and Audrey go to Gail and Martin's
house for tea and Alf tells Martin that he got the wrong idea
about himself and Rita, and brings up the fact that he saw Martin
kissing a young nurse when he visited the hospital on Christmas
Day.
Vera tries some matchmaking with Curly and Trisha and invites
them both to tea on the same night. She goes on about there not
being enough happiness in the world and how you have to grab it
while you can and they both realise they've been set up with Vera
playing cupid. Still, it works, and the next night Curly offers
to take Trisha out. Before they go out, Trisha's son comes to
see Curly and warns him to be careful(!) when he takes his mum
out.
The relief manager steps in to the Rovers to take over while Bet
is away. Bet did ask Racquel to take over while she went on her
cruise but Racquel couldn't decide if she was strong enough for
the responsibility, and by the time she'd decided she would like
to step in as relief manager, Bet had already called the brewery.
His name is Rodney and he was in the police force with Betty's
husband Cyril. He is about the same age as Betty and they get
on well. Jack tries to pull a fast one and tells Rodney that it's
a tradition for the Rovers to stay open past closing time for
the regulars to stay behind for a drink, however his plan backfires
when there's just himseld and Rodney who ends up playing his trombone
in the Rovers. (Racquel calls it a flute!)
Josie waits at Don's house for his new washing machine to be delivered,
unfortunately it doesn't arrive so Josie busies herself with cleaning
the kitchen while Don is out. I think Don is starting to feel
a bit overwhelmed with Josie, and that she could be taking over
his life a little bit too much although he seems to enjoy her
company.
