PlotEdit

Ken finds that Susan is too enthusiastic in her work at the Weatherfield Recorder. Audrey borrows Alf's car to visit a girlfriend. George avoids Ivy. Father O'Brien tells Ivy that she can't marry George and remain a Catholic - in the church's eyes George is still married. She knows that she'll lose George if she doesn't marry him. Curly follows Susan around, lovesick. Jack and Hilda win on the horses. Ivy tells Brian that she's going to marry George and give up the Church.
