PlotEdit

Bert asks Brian not to do anything rash about a car. Ken organises a disco at the Community Centre. The specialist has a cancellation so Alf has an early appointment. He is pleased as he wants a holiday in Spain. Brian sells the bike to a workmate. Ivy shouts at Gail in the cafe, accusing her of twisting Brian round her finger. Renee tells Alf that Dr. Gillespie is a psychiatrist - he is stunned. She begs him to trust the doctor and still go. He agrees. Alf returns after talking to Gillespie. He realises how lucky he is but has to see a neurologist. Brian realises a car will cost more to run than the bike. Ken invites Deirdre to go to the disco with him. She agrees.
