PlotEdit

Andy tells Curly he wants a permanent job at Bettabuys. Alma is annoyed by the way Mike is spending a fortune on Mark. Deirdre is upset that after all she's done she has no security. Tanya starts at the Rovers and hints to Bet that Liz used to bitch about her. Maureen resigns from Bettabuys sick of Reg and Curly. Jack tries to chat Tanya up, telling her he's in show business. Audrey spends her day hiding from Alf. She admits to Gail that she's been fired for bad timekeeping. Maureen apologises to Curly for her behaviour. He talks the situation through with her, them both drinking red wine. Alma discovers that Oakhill School costs £1,800 a term so hits back at Mike by going on a spending spree.
