Jack buys in some pies from Fred the butcher and serves them in
the Rovers at lunchtime. A few people eat them and then start
complaining that they have stomach pains, immediately blaming
the pies. Then Alf says that although he ate a pie, he doesn't
feel ill, although he hadn't been drinking because he's taking
tablets for his blood pressure, so then suspicion falls on the
beer for making folk sick. So, Jack and Fred have a shouting match
in the Rovers, each one blaming the other for making the customers
ill when Martin Platt arrives in time to separate them from fighting
and he tells them that there's a stomach bug going around and
he's had to work in the hospital on his day off because of all
of the ill people with stomach complaints. Jack and Fred shake
hands and make up. Jack takes on some new beer from a different
brewery, to mixed reactions from the locals. He isn't too popular
when some of the beer runs out.
Racquel and Curly have lunch together in Jim's cafe and Curly
gives Racquel a kiss. Racquel is proving to be a much stronger
character these days and doesn't wholly approve of Vera's approach
to running the Rovers.
Vicky finds out that Steve is going out for the evening to a casino,
so she goes along with him and puts a stop to his spending when
all of his cash runs out. When they get home, Steve sleeps on
the sofa saying that if she can't trust him with money then perhaps
they shouldn't have got married after all.
Denise's sister and her husband are visiting Ken and Denise for
Danny's christening, (her sister will now be godmother instead
of Rita). The sister's husband is a real wet blanket and Ken has
a hard time getting on with him. The reception for the christening
is held in the Rovers, and Vera puts on a buffet.
The strange Ray Cropper who lives in the same building as Deidre
and Tricia starts wondering what's up with Deidre as he notices
that she hasn't taken in her pint of milk from her doorstep. When
he enquires whether she is alright, she tells him to mind his
own business, she just wants to be on her own. Ray is obviously
concerned about Deidre, and he goes to Mike to tell him that Deidre
is locking herself away from the world. Mike goes round to see
Deidre and she cries in his arms and tells him how much she misses
Samir.
Curly and Reg are stopped by a police officer in the street and
asked if they will take part in an identity parade in the police
station, and both of them agree to do it. The police are trying
to catch the man who has been exposing himself to women (the Red
Rec flasher), and when the lady walks along the row of men in
the identity parade, she picks out Reg as the flasher! Reg is
then called back for a second identity parade but this time decides
not to wear his hair-piece, in the hope of changing his appearance.
However, the police find out he has done this and this gives them
more reason to suspect him as the potential flasher. Relations
between Liz and Jim are very rocky at present. Kevin comes back
from his holiday to find that Baldwin has sacked Jim.
