Well, Trisha Armstrong doesn't seem to be making too good an impression
on her new neighbours. She has a little boy (aged about 12) and
he is a bit of a tearaway and she doesn't know how to keep control
of him properly. She finds herself locked out of the house she's
renting from Mike Baldwin (Deidre's old house), just as Vera and
Jack Duckworth are passing so Jack breaks the glass in the front
door to open the door for her and lets her in. When the little
boy sees Jack he says to his mum (in front of Vera) "Isn't
that the man that my dad gave a black eye to when he found him
in our house?" and of course it was Jack, when he babysat
the boy when Curly took Trisha on a data a few months back. Mike
Baldwin starts an argument in the Rovers with Trisha over who
is to pay for the broken glass in the door, and the Duckworths
get dragged into this also. Trisha also talks to Bet (not knowing
she is the landlady of the Rovers) and asks her if she can put
a word in for her with the landlady of the Rovers to get her a
part time bar job, although she's been told the landlady is a
right 'slab face'!
Liz Macdonald walks out of her job at the bookies after having
an argument with Steve over his gambling habits. He complains
to Liz that she lives in a slum while he lives in a flat on the
docks and his gambling has paid for all of that and his new lifestyle.
Des asks Liz to come back to work and Steve apologises in the
end.
Mavis is rushed into hospital with concussion after falling off
the 'Mile Muncher' exercise machine of Derek's. Derek is short
of sympathy for Mavis' bump on the head until Martin Pratt tells
Derek he could sue for damages. Derek, realising there could be
something in this pampers Mavis for all he's worth, making out
her injuries are worse than they are.
Alf is invited to a Mayoral lunch where a royal person will be
making an appearance. When Audrey hears about this she decides
she wants to be Mayoress after all, and must see the Royal. However,
Betty has already bought a new outfit but Audrey thinks she can
sway Alf's opinion to take her instead so cooks a nice supper
and cuddles up to him on the sofa, but Alf tells her he's definetely
taking Betty as she is now the 'official' Mayoress.
Rita and Roger continue to be friends, Rita tells Mavis to mind
her own business over their relationship.
Emily and Ken have a long chat, and they both admit they miss
Deidre.
Curly finds out that his new neighbour is Trish Armstrong and
at first believes she has come looking for him, but when he finds
out she has moved into the street he has a resigned drink in the
Rovers.
