Plot[]
Billy lays on the funeral meal to help Hilda. Jack tells Tony how he gave the police Stan's name. Tony takes him to the station to make a statement. Trevor Ogden, Ken, Mike, Emily, Ivy, Vera, Fred and Alf, along with Stan's cousin Edwin and his wife Doris who have arrived from Ormskirk, attend Stan's funeral. Hilda is touched to receive flowers from Annie Walker and the Lowthers. Bill tells Elaine he thinks she's special. Tony tells Bet he's furious she warned Rita off; he's a free agent. He only went out with her for a bit of fun and doesn't want to see her again. Trevor finds the funeral boring. Irma Barlow sends Hilda a telegram from Canada, but Trevor thinks she should have returned for her father's funeral. As soon as he can, he returns to Chesterfield. Mike tells Fred he's found out he's been posing as him to buy and sell shirts. He tells Fred he's fired. Hilda breaks down when she opens Stan's spectacle case, sent on by the hospital.
