Jim and Liz agree that they enjoyed their night together but need to take things one step at a time. Jack fears that Vera will upset the Hortons and they'll never see Tommy again so Bet lets him take the day off and see them. Ivy is thrilled to entertain the Platts with a genuine family atmosphere.

Notes[]

- Viewing Figures: UK broadcast - 16,300,000 viewers (7th place - combined figure including repeat).
- The Granada Plus repeat of this episode on 8th October 2004 was edited for timing reasons, trimming the first 14" of a Rovers' scene in Part Two, where Betty Turpin clears the plates from Des Barnes and Curly Watts's table. The ITV3 repeat on 4th November 2019 reinstated the cut material.
