Plot
Edit
Len paints old radiators to look new to make up the central heating system at No.9. Pauline Stringer does a timekeeping assesment. Mike is disturbed to find she reads Socialist Worker. The Community Centre frontage is redesigned and the whole building is decorated. Ena returns from St. Anne's but can't get in as it's a new door. She is furious to discover the decorators are still in her flat and dumps herself on Albert. Mike is annoyed when Pauline gets on with the girls. Ivy tells Pauline that the girls want a rest room and Pauline checks with the Garments Workers' Union to see if Ivy is the official shop steward. Fred discovers the Flying Horse has started a barbershop quartet. Pauline discovers Ivy is not official. Mike gleefully tells Ivy the news and that the girls will have to hold an election to make it official.
