PlotEdit

Jerry, Doreen and Lucille go to see Walter's debut. The concert secretary's daughter, Myra Dickinson, falls for Jerry. When the top billers don't turn up, Walter is given four more spots. The regulars have a kitty to raise Albert's £5 fine. The concerters miss their bus and have to walk home. Ena lashes out at Emily when she criticises the state of the Mission. She later has a dizzy spell in the Rovers. Frank and Ken track Neil down to Walkden and get some money out of him. Lucille gets the address off Ken and rushes to tell Sheila.
